Question

which best describes how the fossil record supports the theory of evolution?○ the fossil record shows exactly how all species have evolved.○ the fossil record refutes charles darwins theories.○ the fossil record cannot accurately be dated.○ the fossil record reveals intermediates that link different species.

Explanation:

• The fossil record has gaps, so it cannot show exactly how all species evolved.
• The fossil record supports Darwin's evolutionary theories, not refutes them.
• Fossils can be accurately dated using methods like radiometric dating.
• Intermediate fossils (transitional forms) show links between different species, which is key evidence for evolution.

Answer:

The fossil record reveals intermediates that link different species.
