Answer:

I don't exactly know too much about fossils and current animals, so I'll try my best.

Explanation:

Fossils provide evidence about life on Earth that currently extinct. Through fossils, we've discovered several species of animals and plants that previously existed. We also learn how life on Earth changed throughout the years. Fossils found in younger rocks look like animals and plants that are living today. Fossils in older rocks look less like the current living animals and plants. Some fossils found look either more or less like current species we know today.

What 3 things is supported by evolution

Anika [276]

Fossil record- species evolve differently in different environments . different species evolve similarly in the same type of environment
homologous structures of living organisms- 2 variations; similar body structures that don't necessarily have similar functions
homologous- diff mature forms but develop from embryonic tissues
vestigial- similar structures with reduced size and lesser or no functions
embryology- early stages of many animals are very similar- suggesting that organisms share common ancestry

How can dna help scientists make the classification of similar organisms such as giant pandas and red pandas more accurate

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

DNA analysis helps scientists classify similar animals by the evidence of relatedness in general the more derived genetic characters to organisms share the more closely repeated they are...In other words “DNA helps scientists by comparing the similarities in each animal/person’s DNA.

In what two ways are active transport proteins similar to enzymes

Ksju [112]

They change conformation/shape when the right molecule bind in their active site.
They enable reactions to proceed ‘downhill’. For enzyme, when the reactants are more than the products, the reaction proceeds to the right of the reaction. Career proteins also carry molecules down their concentration gradient.
Both career proteins and enzymes are not denatured during the process of their biological activity
