According to Charles Darwin, the Theory of Evolution is the process by which organisms change over time as a result of changes in heritable physical or behavioral traits. These changes were brought about to allow organisms to adapt to its environment and survive and produce offspring.

The law of superposition supports the theory because it is a basic law that states that in any undisturbed sequence of rock deposits, the oldest strata is always at the bottom. And as the layer goes up, the younger the age of any discovered fossil is.

The geologic timescale supports the theory because it is a chronological dating system wherein the timing and the relationship of events that occurred in a specific place is described and connected to Earth's history.

Fossils are proofs that there are organisms that lived before us. The conditions where fossils are found are also linked to their conditions at the time they were still alive. Changes in the area can be studied and observed to predict why and how fossils lived and died.

Answer from: Quest

increase soil erosion reduce soil erosion

cattle grazing hydroseeding

deforestation contour plowing

planting vegetation

plant roots basically hold the top soil

together and stop soil erosion because

in such situation top soil is not removed

during flood but cattle grazing causes

soil erosion because cattle consume the

grasses and herbs and top soil is exposed.

same situation occurs because of

deforestation, the trees and plants are cut

down to expose top soil which causes soil

erosion
