Detailed Solution

Karl Ernst von Baer, a 19th century embryologist, made important contributions to the understanding of evolution. He was the first to describe the similarities in the early embryonic development of different species, and he noted that embryos of different species show a remarkable similarity in their earliest stages of development. This observation provided evidence for the theory of evolution and supported the idea that all animals shared a common ancestor.
