question 1(multiple choice worth 3 points)
(05.01 hc)
if two different animal species are found to go through equivalent stages of embryonic development until the very last stage, which conclusion would this phenomenon support?
the two animal species are very closely related
the two animal species are both mammals
the two animal species have identical dna
the two animal species do not share a common ancestor

Explanation:

Embryonic development similarities often indicate close evolutionary relationships. If two species share most embryonic stages, they likely have a recent common ancestor and are closely related. Just because they share embryonic stages doesn't mean they're both mammals (could be other vertebrates), their DNA isn't identical (only similar in some aspects), and they do share a common ancestor (as per the embryonic similarity).

Answer:

The two animal species are very closely related
