Question 11 • FL-2002040-M/J Comprehensive Science 1 A-CR

Archie is a biologist and is working to classify a newly discovered organism. Which of these steps will he most likely do in the process?

Answer
A
run a test to compare cancerous cells and noncancerous cells from the same organism
B
look for more similarities and differences between two species that have similar bodies
C
create a graph that tracks the population growth rate of a group of organisms in the wild
D
analyze the DNA of two members of the same species who died at different ages

Explanation

Classifying a newly discovered organism involves comparing its traits with those of known organisms to determine how they are related. Looking for similarities and differences between two species with similar bodies can help identify where the new organism belongs. The other choices focus on cancer, population growth, or differences within one species rather than classification.
