12.

Once you've analyzed the DNA of certain species to determine how closely related they are, you isolate a certain protein shared by the organisms and look at the sequence of amino acids that make up the protein. To determine the closer related species you're looking for what among the data?

less differences of amino acids

more differences of amino acids

c)

physical similarities

location of chromosomes

13.

Which is the accurate example of natural selection?

a)

Giraffes with short necks are able to mutate when their environment no longer favors short necks so that their mutated long necks can be passed to future generations

trees started to grow taller to match the lengthening of giraffe necks

c)

lions have a hard time hunting giraffes so their neck size doesn't affect their survival

d)

the giraffes that have long enough necks are better suited to survive in an environment where food is up high, shorter necked giraffes die causing the giraffe population to have longer necks
