What statement is not part os our modern understanding of evolution?
Humans evolved from monkeys rather than sharing a common ancestor with them.
Which statement is not included as a part of the modern theory of evolution?
The statement that all organisms were created in their current form and have not changed over time is not part of the modern theory of evolution. Evolutionary theory explains that organisms have changed and diversified over time through processes like natural selection and genetic variation.
True or False If two modern organisms are distantly related in an evolutionary sense then one should expect that they should share fewer homologous structures than two more closely related organisms?
True. The more distantly related two organisms are in evolutionary terms, the fewer homologous structures they are likely to share. Homologous structures are features that have a common evolutionary origin, so closely related organisms are expected to have more similarities in their structures compared to more distantly related organisms.
Did Charles Darwin know about the universality of the genetic code when he proposed the methods of evolution?
The modern concept of genetics was unknown during Darwin's lifetime, and for many years after. Darwin based his theory of evolution upon observation of the similarities and differences between closely related species, and how they could have developed.
What is meant by modern theory of evolution?
The modern theory of evolution combines Darwin's theory of natural selection with our current understanding of genetics to explain how species change over time. It emphasizes that genetic variation, inheritance, and environmental pressures drive the process of evolution. This theory is supported by evidence from fields such as genetics, paleontology, and biogeography.

Where can scientists find an example of evolution?
Humankind is the perfect example.We have shown with fossils that there are numerous transitional forms, from apelike predecessors, to simple hominins to hominids, to more recent ancestors to the modern homo sapiens.We have shown via genetic, physiological and anatomic comparisons that humans are closely related to certain apes, then somewhat less closely related to other primates, then less closely again to certain groups of mammals, and then less closely again to the rets of mammals.
Did mammals evolve from dinosaurs?
No. Mammals evolved from synapsid reptiles, a group not closely related to dinosaurs. Dinosaurs are more closely related to modern reptiles and birds than they are to mammals.
