"Living things have adapted and changed over time for specific, discoverable reasons." is the most accurate.

Explanation: Evolutionary change occurs through measurable processes (mutation, natural selection, genetic drift, gene flow) that explain why traits change. Scientists still actively study evolution, all life shares common ancestry, and evidence comes from many sources (fossils, comparative anatomy, biogeography, embryology, experiments and DNA), not DNA alone.
