1. Gather information from secondary sources (including photos/diagrams/models) to observe‚ analyse and compare the structure of vertebrate forelimbs. Comparative anatomy is the study of the differences and similarities in structure between different organisms. An example of comparative anatomy is the pentadactyl limb which is the basic five-digit bone structure of many vertebrate’s forelimbs. The vertebrate forelimb (or the pentadactyl limb) comprises of the humerus (upper arm)‚ radius and ulna

Evolution and Classification Test Darwin/Lamarck Darwin’s observations: Usually the numbers of offspring produced are far greater than the ones that survive Natural resources are limited. This leads to a struggle for existence with only a fraction of offspring surviving to the next generation Slight variations (mutations) occur by chance within a population These variations are inheritable Darwin concluded that living organisms were evolving through
