○ molecular
○ fossil
○ embryology
question 8

organisms that have structures that are different the same but same functions are of what type of evolution?
○ convergent evolution
○ divergent evolution
For the first question: Unborn organisms (embryos) are studied to determine evolutionary relatedness in embryology. Anatomical evidence focuses on adult body structures, molecular on genetic material, and fossil on preserved remains, which do not match the scenario.
For the second question: Convergent evolution produces organisms with different structural origins but identical functions, as unrelated species adapt to similar environments. Divergent evolution leads to related species with shared structural origins and different functions, which does not fit the description.
