So in this question we are given a few statements regarding the theory of evolution.
00:11
Okay? the theory of evolution and we need to state whether they are true or false.
00:19
Okay? coming to the first statement.
00:22
The first statement says transitional fossils not only capture the in -between forms on the path to present -day species but they can also provide an indication of the timeline of the changes that took to.
00:34
This statement is true.
00:39
Okay, this statement is true.
00:42
So transitional fossils are fossils of connecting links.
01:07
Hence they give an idea about intermediate species as well as the changes that took place during that time.
01:51
Okay? now the next statement is saying shared physical features due to a common ancestor are said to be homologous structure.
02:04
Now this is a true statement.
02:11
Okay.
02:15
Because homology talks about shared ancestral structures with different functions.
02:44
Okay? this is my option number b.
02:50
Now coming to the third statement, this says homologous structures are only seen in embryos and not in adult form.
03:03
This is false.
03:07
Okay? why? because homologous structures are seen in both adults as well as embryos.
03:20
Homologous structures are seen in both adults and embryos...
