Are similar genes evidence of common ancestory?
If organisms have similar genes, then they are closely related.
Comparative suggests organisms that are more closely related have more similar embryo development?
embryology
The approach to evolution that involves the study of similar structures that appear during the development of different organisms is known as the study of?
Comparative Embryology- This is the study of similar structures appearing during the embryonic development of related organisms.
Which level contains organisms that are most closely related a phylum or a class?
The category that most similiar organisms belong to is genus.
ALL TUNDRAS ECOSYSTEM HAVE SIMILAR FEATURES?
all tundras ecosystem have similar features
Similar features in organisms that do not share a recent common ancestor are the result of what?
Similar features in organisms that do not share ancestry means both organisms adapted to their environment. They developed the features to survive.
Why are ants in the bee order?
Because they are evolutionarily related - they both had a common ancestor. They have similar body shapes and similar social behaviours.
What is it called when organisms evolve similar features?
Co-evolution.
Is monica potter related to Julia Roberts?
No they are not related. They have similar features but are not related.
Are homologous structures similar structures in related organisms?

Why are DNA sequences more similar in more closely related organisms?
In fact the organisms are closely related because the DNA sequences are more similar. DNA sequences are more different as the organism differs.
A group of similar organisms that can produce fertile offspring?
A group of similar organisms that can produce fertile offspring are species.
Are similar genes evidence of common ancestory?
If organisms have similar genes, then they are closely related.
3 Are the shell of a turtle and that of a snail homologous or analogous?
analogous because the two features are similar in function yet did not occur due to a shared ancestry. it would be considered homology if the two organisms were somehow related.
