Discussion
Select only one of the questions to respond to.
Find at least one internet source which questions the validity of homology as evidence of evolution. Briefly summarize their argument. Find and describe a response by proponents of evolutionary theory. Evaluate the evidence supporting their positions.
Those that resist evolutionary theory often imply that there are no vestigial structures. Assume that they are correct. Would that be evolutions Achilles heel? Why or why not?
Technological advances have enabled us to directly study the genome of an increasing number of organisms with increasing detail. “Look into your crystal ball†and predict the impact that this will have on the discussion of evolution by the general public.
