Miller and Urey tried to mimic the "primordial soup" of the early Earth and create life, but they were only able to produce a few ______________.

• amino acids/proteins

• elements/ molecules

• organs

• cells

Two organisms that are closely related would have

• very similar DNA sequence

• completely different DNA sequence

• no proteins in common

A chemical was added to hand sanitizers and dish detergents to kill bacteria. Certain species of bacteria are no longer killed by this chemical. One likely reason for the decreased effectiveness of this chemical is that these bacteria have

• slower metabolic rates

• a mutation for resistance

• been selectively bred for survival

• an adaptation to a different niche

Palentological evidences for evolution refer to the

• development of embryo

• homologous organs

• fossils

• analogous organ

What is embryology?

•          Adaptation.
• The study of fetus and embryo development, and fertilization.
•            Evolution.
•  The study of fossils.
