Honors Bio class 11

Today in class we talked a little about last nights homework and then spent the rest of class finishing the worksheet of our choice. I chose the worksheet where you compare different DNA of animals to each other, and record the differences on a table. The worksheet looked like this:
 

The table of differences

The DNA strands
 
At the end of the worksheet, we ranked the animals in terms of their position in evolution on the earth, and answered some questions on evolution. We concluded that the DNA of all these animals shared some similar characteristics that would suggest that they shared a similar ancestor. Some were closer than others such as, the zerbra and horse, or the chicken and turkey. This evidence helps to further prove the theory of evolution, and its role in earths history.
