If two organisms look very similar during their early stages of development this is evidence that the organisms are what?

Of common ancestry, though ontogeny does not recapitulate phylogeny, ontogeny, development, can create phylogeny.

True.


What should you look for when considering whether structures from two kind of organisms are homologous?

The structures should have similar anatomy in the two organisms.


What is it when breeders cross two geneticlly similar organisms?

The two organisms DNA fuse together and join as one to produce an organism with both of the other organisms genetic material.


Which two DNA samples are the most similar?

The question itself is not clear. Two cells that have just divided will have the MOST similar DNA. If we are talking about whole organisms or individuals, then clones would have the most similar DNA, similarly identical twins would have near identical DNA. Siblings have very similar DNA but not identical of course.


What the levels of classification indicate about the relationship between organisms?

Each level of classification uses certain characteristics of organisms that are similar to group them...for example, humans and cats are both in the Kindom Animalia (because they are animals). Similar organisms belong in the same groups, and each group is more specific than the last. For example, if two organisms are in the same Family, but different genuses, then they will be less similar than two organisms in the same genus.


How are the multiplication of individual cells in a multi cellular organism similar to reproduction in a single celled organism?

The multiplication of cells in both multi and single cell organisms is very similar. In layman's terms, both types of cell split into two identical cells. In the case of the single cell organism, this means that there are now two of the organisms. In multi cell organisms, it means that the number of cells within the organism has increased.

Biologist can compare amino-acid sequence of the same protein from two or more species sequences can be very similar or very different what do the similarities and differences tell us?

Similarities in amino acid sequences tell us the the genes coding for these proteins are similar. Similar genes are due to shared ancestry ie the organisms have evolved from a common ancestor in the past. Differences in amino acid sequence tell us that mutations have occurred in the genes since the organisms separated from the common ancestor. The bigger the differences, the longer the organisms have been separated.
