Anonymous You didn't put the last 4 questions in and I got a 8/17 that is less than 50%.
Don't mind me imma just grab my stuff and leave
what about the 20-question test I have what are the answers are the test is called evolutions test?!?!
Ya I need those too @ANSSERNEEDED
Alright guys, Just wait about 10 more minutes and I be posting answers!
Ok I'm back! I can't put my answers out because I got a 90% and I know that ppl would be mad at me for giving them my answers. I only missed 2 questions btw. It was 12.) and 13.) that I missed.
@naruko Uzumaki pls give me the answer
Are you sure? You won't get mad at me for giving you a 90%?
If you're really sure then here:
1.) differences between organisms
2.) Organisms with traits that help them survive and reproduce in their environment pass on those traits.
3.) whale hind limb
4.) fish and birds
5.) Humans and chimpanzees evolved from a common ancestor.
6.) These animals descended from a common ancestor.
7.) organisms that once lived.
8.) patterns in limb structures
9.) that these animals evolved from a common ancestor
10.) Which animal is older?
11.) Over time, the horse limb got longer.
12.) Their embryos share features in the early stages of development. (this is the right answer.)
13.) they all have internal skeletons. (I really don't know if this is the right answer.)
14.) primates, hominids, hominins
15.) direct ancestor of two or more different organisms.
16.) hominins
17.) The animal lived millions of years ago.
18.) All finch species evolved from a common ancestor.
19.) Pythons descended from an animal with legs.
20.) They have backbones.
Alr! I really hope this helps you and others! I found the correct answer for #12.) but not for #13.) so I took a second guess.

Grass is a type of plant with narrow leaves growing from the base. A common kind of grass is used to cover the ground in places such as lawns and parks. Grass is usually the color/colour ‘green’. Grasses are monocotyledon herbaceous plants.
Grass
The grasses include the "grass" of the family Poaceae. This family is also called Gramineae. The family also include some of the sedges (Cyperaceae) and the rushes (Juncaceae).[1] These three families are not closely related but all of them belong to clades in the order Poales. They are similar adaptations to a common life-style.
The true grasses include cereals, bamboo and the grasses of lawns (turf) and grassland. Uses for graminoids include food (as grain, sprouted grain, shoots or rhizomes), drink (beer, whisky), pasture for livestock, thatching thatch, paper, fuel, clothing, insulation, construction, sports turf, basket weaving and many others.
Many grasses are short, but some grasses can grow very tall, such as Bamboo. Plants from the grass family can grow in many places and make grasslands, including areas which are very arid or cold. There are several other plants that look similar to grass and are referred to as such, but are not members of the grass family. These plants include rushes, reeds, papyrus and water chestnut. Seagrass is a monocot in the order Alismatales.
Grasses are an important food for many animals, such as deer, buffalo, cattle, mice, grasshoppers, caterpillars and many other grazers. Unlike other plants, grasses grow from the bottom, so when animals eat grass they usually do not destroy the part that grows.[2] This is a part of why the plants are successful. Without grass, soil may wash away into rivers (erosion).
