Do you know about evolution and classifications? This quiz can explain it to you. Concerning this quiz, you will need to recognize how to tell if two species are the same, what characteristic of early autotrophs gave them an advantage over early heterotrophs, what natural selection is, and which group contains organisms that can be classified as primary producers. Make sure you retrieve your certificate once you have completed this quiz.

Giraffe necks varied in length, and all offspring had an equal chance of survival.
Giraffe necks varied in length, and the shorter-necked giraffes were at a disadvantage.
Giraffes with short necks migrated to locations best suited for their neck lengths.
Giraffes stretched their necks to reach for food, and resulting offspring had longer necks.
