Multiple Choice

Evolutionary relationships between organisms are determined by

A) molecular evidence and anatomical homologies.
B) molecular evidence, anatomical homologies, and fossil records.
C) molecular evidence, anatomical analogies, and fossil records.
D) molecular evidence and fossil records.
E) molecular evidence, anatomical homologies, anatomical analogies, and fossil records. Anatomical analogies are not useful in determining evolutionary relationships because they are the result of convergent evolution. In convergent evolution, distantly related organisms may develop similar adaptations to the same environment, but this does not imply an evolutionary relationship between the two organisms.
