“…why, if species have descended from other species by insensibly fine gradations, do we not everywhere see innumerable transitional forms? Why is not all nature in confusion instead of species being, as we see them, well defined?”
Charles Darwin, On the Origin of Species, 1st ed., Chapter 6, p.171.

“Paleontologists call the diversification of life during the early Cambrian Period the ‘Cambrian Explosion.’ For the first time, organisms had hard parts, including shells and outer skeletons. During the Cambrian Period, the first known representatives of most animal phyla evolved.”

“Spontaneous origin is the process through which life is thought to have developed when molecules of nonliving matter reacted chemically during the first billion years of Earth’s history. These molecules formed many different simple, organic molecules.”

“Energized by the sun and volcanic heat, these simple, organic molecules formed more-complex molecules that eventually became the building blocks of the first cells. The hypothesis that many of the organic building blocks of life were made from molecules of nonliving matter has been tested and confirmed using scientific methods in laboratory experiments.”

Marine FossilsMarine Fossils
“At least 95 percent of all animal fossils are of marine invertebrates. They are found in great variety, but all are well-designed for life in the sea…. These fossilized marine creatures are typically found in catastrophic deposits.”
