Answer;

-It shows how we came into existence and changed over time

Step-by-step explanation;

Evolution helps people understand why life has become so diverse. It explains how certain traits become characteristic of animal and plant life through adaptations.

-Evolution is the change in the inherited traits of a population from generation to generation. These traits are the expression of genes that are copied and passed on to offspring during reproduction. Mutations in these genes can produce new or altered traits, resulting in heritable differences (genetic variation) between organisms.
