Evidence of Evolution

Multiple Choice

Which statement best describes how a virus replicates?

A virus divides into two identical virus particles before infecting the host cell.

A virus enters a host cell and uses the materials from the host cell to produce new virus particles.

Multiple virus particles fuse and form a large particle that breaks apart, releasing new virus particles.

Multiple virus particles break down in component parts, which then reassemble into new copies of the virus.

Multiple Choice

Multiple Choice

The diagram illustrates an embryonic stage of two organisms. Which of the following can be determined by observing the embryos shown in the diagram?

The organisms belong to the same genus.

The organisms are native to the same geographic areas.

The organisms share a common ancestry.

Multiple Choice

What is this an example of?

vestigial structures

embryology

homologous structures

fossil record

Multiple Choice

If two organisms have similar traits of DNA they are probably

share a common ancestor

share a common environment

share a common population

speciation

Multiple Choice

Which is not evidence for evolution?

many animals have homologous structures due to common ancestry

evolution.

development.

growth.

ancestry.

Multiple Choice

A cellular process is shown.Which of these is the most likely result of the process shown in the diagram?

Offspring will no longer express traits from previous generations.

Gametes will contain new allele combinations.

Chromatids will have less genetic variety.

Multiple Choice

they live in the same type of environment.

have slowly evolved to become herbivores.

have a common ancestor.

exchanged DNA in the past.

Multiple Choice

What would happen if the Giraffes never evolve?

they would survive

They would thrive

They would become extinct

They will find another source of food

Multiple Choice

very similar DNA sequence

exactly the same DNA sequences

no proteins in common

completely different DNA sequence
