  …r conclusions if we can’t always find the remains of a species’ ancestors? Good models are able to make predictions. The easiest way to verify our conclusions is to use new data that corresponds with the model. However, sometimes it doesn’t, and the model has to be remade. We can see an insightful illustration of mutations, evolution, and so on through the exa…
