strong physical similarities among closely related organisms and also among distantly related organisms.
weak physical similarities among closely related organisms and also among distantly related organisms.
Evolution theory states that closely related organisms have strong genetic similarities (due to recent common ancestry) and distantly related ones have weak ones. If the opposite (weak in close, strong in distant) is shown, it would counter evolution.
