Question 11 options:
The name must include the genus and species of the new organism. It must be written in bold with the species and genus name in lowercase.
The name must include the genus and species of the new organism. It must be written in italics with the species name lowercase.

How is a clade differentiated from another clade?
Question 12 options:
A clade is a monophyletic grouping in which all the organisms stem from the same branching point.
A clade represents a significant divergence in evolutionary history and covers all organisms involved in that divergence.
A clade is a biphyletic group in which there are two branching points for each group of organisms.
A clade includes only the class and phylum for a group of organisms.

Question 16 (5 points)
Why is the fossil record biased?
Question 16 options:
Archaea are abundant in the fossil record, but eukaryotes are not.
We don't have every organism that existed identified in the fossil record.
Scientists tend to favor eukaryotic organisms over prokaryotic organisms.
