Here is the correct matching of the Evidences of Evolution from Column A with the corresponding descriptions or examples in Column B:

  1. Homologous Structure(s): f. The similarities in the bones found in the forelimbs of humans, bats, cats, and rats.
  2. Embryological Development: d. Early in development, a tail, notochord, and gill slits that can be seen in all chordates.
  3. Analogous Structure: c. Bat and dragonfly wings have similar functions, but have a different evolutionary history.
  4. Biochemical Evidence: a. Analysis of DNA or a protein sequence and the similarities.
  5. Vestigial Structure: b. Wisdom teeth in humans and the pelvic bone in whales.
  6. Fossil Record: e. Remains or impressions of organisms from the past, showing evolutionary changes over time.
