(QUESTION 1) Flowering plants have common ancestors with other plants and plant-like organisms. The table below shows the last common ancestor shared between flowering plants and two other types of organisms.
A scientist compares the amino acid sequences of a protein produced by flowering plants, a cone-producing plant, and green algae.
What prediction about these sequences is supported by the data in the table?
(ANSWER) The amino acid sequences for flowering plants and cone-producing plants will be the most similar.
(QUESTION2) Which statement best describes the relationship between protein, amino acids, and DNA?
(ANSWER) DNA codes for proteins. Proteins are made up of amino acids.
(QUESTION3) How does DNA analysis help scientists better understand evolution?
(ANSWER) It helps chart changes in amino acid sequences over time.
(QUESTION4) Based on this diagram, which two groups of organisms share the most similar DNA?
(ANSWER) turtles and frogs
(QUESTION5) A scientist compares the amino acid sequences of four species to a similar protein produced by a human. The table shows the percentage of similarity in the amino acid sequence of each organism compared to the human sequence.
Which claim is supported by the evidence in the table?
(ANSWER) Humans have the closest evolutionary relationship to Species 1.
This is the "regular" quick check NOT the honors class
hope this helped (:
Biological Evolution Evidence Quick Check
1.The amino acid sequences for flowering plants in con producing plants will be the most similar
