Fossil record support the theory of evolution because it provides certain physical evidences that could be used to show a change over a time period in organisms.

Explanation:

Evolution is the changes inheritable in nature which accounts for better adaptions and survival to the changing environment. For example natural selection, gene drift and so on. Fossils are the remnants of animals engraved in layers of rock that used to live on earth millions of years ago, but now became extinct, due to lacking of adaptability and evolution to survive in the changing environments. For example, the fossils of Neanderthals, the precursors of modern human, provides evidences as to how the modern human has undergone certain changes to survive in the changing environmental conditions.
