I. MULTIPLE CHOICE. Read each item carefully. Encircle the letter of the best
answer.

1. Which of the following phrases best describes the process of evolution?

a. The change of simple to complex organisms.
b. The development of characteristics in response to need
c. Change of populations through time
d. The change of populations solely in response to natural selection

2. Fossils are the remains and traces of organisms infer from your own
understanding on where to find the richest source of fossils?
a. Along a rocky walls
b. In a fossilized tree sap
c. In coal and peat moss
d. Within the sedimentary rocks strata
3. Paleontologist uses several method in determining the age of the fossil. Which
of the following method used to determine the age of the rocks by comparing them
with rocks in the other layer?
a. relative dating
b. carbon-14 dating
c. geologic time scale
d. fossil records

4. The tooth fossil of megalodon found in Bohol last July 2020 is an example of
what type of fossil?
a. impression fossil
b. compression fossil
c. fossil fuel
d. relative dating

5. The following is the importance of fossil records EXCEPT?

a. Fossils provide evidence that organisms are not the same as of today.
b. Fossils show a progression of evolution.
c. Fossils do not show any evidence for evolution.
d. Fossils can give insight into how prehistoric plants obtained food
reproduced and even how they behave.

6. The similarities and differences of the structures among organisms could be a

hint for evolutionary concept. Which of the following evidence for evolutions refers
to the study of the similarities and differences in the anatomy of different
species?
a. embryonic development
b. genetic information
c. comparative anatomy
d. fossil records
 7. Which pairs of animals shows a correct example of homologous structures?
a. Wings of bird and wings of butterfly
b. Arm of starfish and Fingers of human
c. Flipper of penguin and forelimb of cat.
d. Proboscis of mosquito and tongue of frog.

8. Human and chimpanzee have similar Amino acid sequence. How would you
describe when chimpanzees and human share many of the same genes?
a. Two groups share a relatively common ancestor
b. Humans evolved from chimpanzees
c. Two groups belong to the same species
d. Chimpanzees evolved from humans

9. Which of the following does NOT belong to the group?

a. whale flipper and human arm
b. alligator forelimb and human arm
c. bird wing and butterfly wing
d. dog forelimb and lizard forelimb

10.Genetic information is another hint for evolution. How does genetic information
provides evidence for evolution?
a. Genetic information does not provide evidence for evolution
b. Similar structure evolved to do the same function.
c. Species that are closely related exhibit similar embryonic development.
d. The greater the similarity in amino acid sequence, the closer the
relationship of an organism

II. Modified true or false. Write the word TRUE if the statement is correct. If the
statement is FALSE, change the underlined word with the correct one.
_______________1. Comparative anatomy is an evidence for evolution that looks at the
amino acid sequence of an organism.
_________________2. If the structure of organisms has the same origin but different
functions is called homologous structure.
_______________3. Wings of bat and wings of butterfly are example of homologous
chromosomes.
________________4. Human and Chimpanzee have common ancestry based on their
amino acid sequence.
________________5. The greater the similarity in amino acid sequence, the closer the
relationship of an organism.
