Question

drag each tile to the correct box.
arrange the tiles to show the sequence of events in the development of the theory of evolution.
darwin proposed the theory of evolution by natural selection.
darwin collected specimens from around the world during the hms beagle voyage.
scientists collected fossils that showed species changing over time.
mendel proposed laws for how traits are inherited.
scientists examined evolutionary relationships using dna sequencing.

Explanation:

1. First, early fossil evidence of changing species laid the foundational observation for evolutionary thought.
2. Next, Darwin's voyage on the HMS Beagle allowed him to collect global specimens, which informed his later theory.
3. Darwin then formalized his theory of evolution by natural selection using his collected evidence.
4. Mendel's inheritance laws provided the missing mechanism for how traits (key to natural selection) are passed between generations.
5. Finally, modern DNA sequencing allowed scientists to examine evolutionary relationships at a molecular level, the most recent development.

Answer:

1. Scientists collected fossils that showed species changing over time.
2. Darwin collected specimens from around the world during the HMS Beagle voyage.
3. Darwin proposed the theory of evolution by natural selection.
