About this listen

What is the evidence for evolution? Darwin's belief about human evolution was influenced by Thomas H. Huxley, who proposed that humans descended from apes. This was evident to Darwin because of the anatomical similarities shared between humans and apes. Darwin also was persuaded that humans descended from fish, based on the notion that the embryonic state of each species indicates the structure of their less developed ancient progenitors. At that time, it was assumed that the embryos of many different species were fish-like. Subsequent scientific research has given evidence that these ideas are highly inconclusive at best, and in the case of the embryos, false.
