Figures through show examples of transitional fossils. If Darwin’s theory of evolution is correct, and all organisms are descended with modification from a common ancestor, predict some other examples of transitional forms that should have existed and that might have produced fossils. If such fossils are someday found, will that strengthen the hypothesis that such transitional species once existed? Conversely, if such fossils have not been found, does this weaken the hypothesis that the transitional species once existed?
