Which statements best describe natural selection?
Which of the following statements about the "tree of life" is correct?
Before Carl Woese, all cellular life forms were classified into five kingdoms: Monera, Fungi, Plants, Animals, and Protists.
Using rRNA genes for phylogenetic reconstruction, Carl Woese uncovered a previously unrecognized group that was thought to be bacteria. Afterward, all cellular life forms were classified into three domains: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eucarya.
It is found that the relationship among Archaea, Bacteria, and Eucarya changes, depending on which gene was used for phylogenetic reconstruction.
All of the above
How can we apply the principles of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection in our everyday life?
