Answer:

This is a sample of the fish population.

Explanation:

There are more than 28 fish in the sea (river, lagoon, or other body of water). The fish population consists of all fish present in the sea. When we put a bait in this sea, we want to attract as many people as possible from this population, but we will not be able to attract the whole population. The individuals we are able to attract with our bait represent a sample of the population.

A population is a set of people, items, or events that you want to make inferences about. A sample is a subset of people, items, or events from a larger population that you collect and analyze to make inferences. To represent the population well, a sample must be randomly collected and appropriately large. This concept can also be used to represent the fish, shown in the question above, so we can say that the 28 fish are the population sample.

joja [24]

Answer:

There are many types of evidence which support the theory of evolution such as comparative anatomy, fossil records, phylogenetic relationship, embryology et cetera

Comparative anatomy includes homologous organs and analogous organs. They support divergent and convergent evolution respectively.  

For example, the homologous structure of limb of humans, birds, bat, horse, whale et cetera show that they are made up of the same set of bones which are humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges.  

It shows divergent evolution and supports that these organisms have evolved from a common ancestor.

Embryological evidence: When early stages of embryological development of different organisms are compared, it is found that these stages are similar at different levels of development.

For example:

  • The appearance of pharyngeal-arch (gill-like structures) in vertebrates during embryo development.
  • Salamanders and terrestrial frogs pass through larval stages within an egg. They possess the features similar to aquatic larvae, however, when they hatched out the eggs being ready for life on land.

They are typically by sexual reproduction. Boundary which is between closely related species they becomes unclear.
