NYS Living Environment Regents Review: Evolution Quiz (Google Forms)

$2.25

10 Regents-Style Questions on Natural Selection, Speciation, and Evidence of Evolution.

This NYS Living Environment Regents Review quiz provides targeted practice on evolution using authentic Regents-style multiple-choice questions. The quiz is delivered through Google Forms for easy assignment, automatic grading, and efficient data collection.

The assessment includes 10 questions drawn from past New York State Living Environment Regents exams. Questions address natural selection, speciation, antibiotic and insecticide resistance, homologous structures, evolutionary trees, and evidence supporting evolutionary theory. The format mirrors the structure and language of the Regents exam to support accurate preparation.

To support meaningful review, both the question order and answer choices are randomized with each attempt. This allows students to retake the quiz for additional practice while ensuring that improved scores reflect improved understanding rather than memorization.

The Google Form integrates smoothly with Google Classroom. Teachers can sync grades automatically and, if desired, delete a student’s submission to allow for retakes.

This quiz works well as:

  • a formative check during an evolution unit

  • a Regents review warm-up or homework assignment

  • targeted practice before cumulative review

  • a quick assessment to identify areas for reteaching

What’s Included

  • 10 NYS Regents-aligned multiple-choice questions

  • Auto-graded Google Form

  • Randomized question and answer order

  • Immediate performance data for instructional decisions
