Fossils provide scientists with evidence that allows them to hypothesize how living organisms have evolved over time. tiktaalik roseae was a unique organism that has been shown to be 375 million years old. it has been nicknamed the “fishapod” because it is believed to be a common ancestor of both fish and tetrapods, the first four-legged animals. mc023-1.jpg how would a scientist study the relationship between the tiktaalik roseae and modern fish and tetrapods?

The correct answer is to this question would be to create a diagram that hypothesizes ancestry, relating these species.

The father of evolution theory, Charles Darwin, laid ground for all of these studies on ancestry, as he was the first to observe hypothesize about evolution.

In the case stated above, the best option would be to create a diagram to study and compare the species, in order to figure out the relationship between them, hypothesizing about their ancestry. It would serve as both a good tool for visualization and study, and proof of their relation if the study ends up revealing so.
