What type of evidence is this picture show

• Fossil

• Geography

• Embryology

• Anatomy

• DNA

Answer explanation

The picture shows a fossil, which is the preserved remains or traces of ancient organisms. Fossils provide crucial evidence for understanding the history of life on Earth, distinguishing them from other types of evidence like DNA or anatomy.
