Scientists theorize that all life started with simple prokaryotic organisms. New species continue to evolve from existing species, creating the variety of life we see today. The following diagram shows the basic process. the six kingdoms branching out from a universal ancestor

Based on this diagram, do you think that organisms of the same order will share a stronger evolutionary relationship than organisms that share only the same phylum? Explain your reasoning using the results of your investigation.

Turtle hatchling survivorship rate is low in many turtle species due to predation. amanda researched the predatory rate on a species of turtle eggs in the red river. the eggs were harvested from trapped turtles and the egg's cloaca film (reproductive discharge) was either washed off or left on once gathered. research suggests that predators use the female's cloaca scent to locate the eggs. the eggs were only handled when wearing gloves and then reburied along islands where the turtles were trapped. the nests were monitored by cameras and manually on foot and data on nest predation were recorded. a. based on the experimental design, what is the dependent variable? b. based on the experimental design, what is the independent variable? c. based on the experimental design, what is the control?
