Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Evolutionary biology is a unifying concept in biology as it explains the unity of life (all living things share a common ancestor), the diversity of life (species have evolved and adapted to different environments), and how change occurs at the molecular level. It also explains the origin and function of ecosystems through the interactions between different species and their environments. Therefore, all of the given statements explain the central role of evolution in biological science.
