ACTIVITY SHEETS IN GENERAL BIOLOGY 2 GRADE


11/12
QUARTER 3, WEEK 4

MELC: The learners shall be able to explain evidences of evolution


(e.g. biogeography, fossil record, DNA/protein sequences, homology,
and embryology).
 K to 12 BEC CG: STEM_BIO11/12-IIIc-g-12

Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the learners will be able to:
1. Describe evolution such as homology, DNA/protein sequences, plate tectonics,
fossil record, embryology, and artificial selection/agriculture;
2. Discuss evidences to support evolution.

Title of the Activity: Observed or Proven?

Most Essential Learning Competency: The learners shall be able explain evidences of
evolution (e.g. biogeography, fossil record, DNA/protein sequences, homology, and
embryology).

K to 12 BEC CG: STEM_BIO11/12-IIIc-g-12

Directions: Modified true or false. Write T if the statement is TRUE and write F
if the statement is FALSE. If false, underline the wrong statement or word and
write the correct statement or word after the sentence. No erasures or
superimpositions.

______1. Comparative embryology is the study of structures that appear during embryonic
development.
______2. Geologists use fossils found in rocks to track the evolutionary history of many
organisms.
______3. Analogous Structures are structures with the same set of bones that presumably evolved
from a common ancestor. They appear different and may have varied functions.
_______4. Vestigial Structures are structures that perform the same function but have very
different embryological development or set of structures like bones.
_______5. Homologous Structures are structures or attributes that have lost most of its ancestral
function in more recent species.
_______6. Many organisms have similar molecules of life (RNA, DNA, proteins) that suggest
descent from a common ancestor with modifications
_______7. Biogeography is the study of geographical distribution of fossils and living organisms.
_______8. Taxonomy alone can show us the relatedness of different species.
________9. Farmers and breeders allowed only the plants and animals with desirable
characteristics to reproduce, causing the evolution of farm stock. This process is called artificial
selection.
________10. It has been predicted by the theory of evolution that the differences in
such DNA sequences between two organisms should roughly resemble both the biological
difference between them according to their anatomy and the time that had passed
