Hi,
yes, as said by Tim, you can find the exact version used for every activity in the backup, more exactly in a file named module.xml under activities/activity_xx. Same applies for blocks.
In any case... be aware that backups use to be forward compatible... meaning that Moodle should guarantee that any backup since 2.0 is able to restore perfectly in current 2.7. So no change/customization in the choice activity (your example) should be needed to restore old backups. I'd say it's a bug if that happens.
Of course, note that the opposite is not guaranteed, i.e. backup files are not backward compatible, so a backup of current 2.7 should not be restored with older versions ever. In fact, the restore process warns about it. Proceeding is a risk you assume to run.
Hope it helps, ciao![smile]( "smile")
