Embryos of different vertebrates DO NOT look alike in their early stages. Natural selection serves as a means of conservation, not one of creation. Darwin's proposed mechanism for evolutionary change is observed in nature.

any animals have similar bone structures, giving the superficial
appearance of relationship. (crit) Thought to have been evidence for
common ancestry until significant advancements were made in biochemistry. Simply put, "Similarity does not imply a genetic relationship." embryos of different vertebrates look alike in their early stages, giving the superficial appearance of relationship. (crit) Embryos of different vertebrates DO NOT look alike in their early stages. "This idea was fathered by Ernest Haeckel, a German biologist who was so convinced that he had solved the riddle of life's unfolding that he doctored and faked his drawings of embryonic stages to prove his point." Darwin's proposed mechanism for evolutionary change is observed in nature. (crit) Natural selection serves as a means of conservation, not one of creation. It explains survival of a species, not arrival of a species. Here is an illustration: You work in a car factory. Your job is quality control - make sure the cars work as they are supposed to. You kick the tires and slam the doors, drive the cars around, etc. You identify and remove defects (an arbitrary selection with the same result as natural selection). How long would it take this selection process to turn one of those cars into an airplane naturally over time? It will not happen. "Natural selection may have a stabilizing effect, but it does not promote speciation [the arrival of a new species]. It is not a creative force as many people have suggested."
