Intelligent Design vs Evolution Test

  1. What is the main concept behind Intelligent Design theory?
    A belief that certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection.
    A belief that all living organisms share a common ancestor.
    A belief that the universe and all life forms arose through purely natural processes.
  2. Which of the following is a mechanism proposed by evolution for the diversity of life?
    Intelligent design by a creator.
    Natural selection acting on variations within populations.
    Random chance alone.
  3. What is one piece of evidence for evolution?
    Fossils of extinct species from ocean to land in order of oldest to youngest.
    Lack of complexity in living organisms.
    The fine-tuning of physical constants in the universe.
  4. Which scientist proposed the theory of natural selection?
    Charles Darwin.
    Gregor Mendel.
    Louis Pasteur.
  5. What is one argument often used by proponents of Intelligent Design?

    Natural selection.
    Mutation.
  10. What evidence supports the theory of common descent?
    Homologous structures in different species.
    The complexity of life forms.
    The lack of transitional fossils.
  11. Which observation supports the theory of natural selection?
    The presence of structures adapted to specific environments.
    The existence of vestigial organs.
    The presence of complex structures.
