Help your students build real understanding of phylogenetic trees through ninety questions that move from basic recognition to genuine reasoning about living systems.
The set includes questions like "What does a node on a phylogenetic tree represent?", "Which of the following best describes a clade?", and "What does a bootstrap value indicate in phylogenetic trees?"
All three worksheets cover the same topic in different question styles. That means you can use one as a pretest, another for practice or homework, and the third as a follow up quiz, without students ever seeing the same question twice.
This set is part of a complete NGSS aligned biology unit. The unit also covers Fossil Record and Evolution, Comparative Anatomy, Embryology and Development, Molecular Evidence, Transitional Fossils, and Vestigial Structures, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 9-12 biology classes, and for NGSS aligned review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to NGSS standard HS-LS4-1.
