Key Idea

The rules of Evolutionary History are universal. Whether studying whales, birds, or humans, the logic is the same:

  1. Ignore surface "looks" (Analogy).
  2. Look for internal shared structures (Homology).
  3. Use these structures to find the common ancestor.
  4. Understand that time and environment modify these structures over generations.
