Explain two factors that lead to adaptive evolution.
On this cladogram of the reptiles (which includes birds), all taxa have parental care except for the lizard (indicated as "no PC"). Apply the principle of parsimony to this situation and identify the cladogram that provides the most likely explanation for the evolution of parental care in the lizards. Note on the cladogram a black bar represents a GAIN of parental care (PC), a white bar represents the LOSS of parental care (PC). 0 The maple leaf The stars The flower The volcano no PC no PC no PC no PC
Regarding data from the fossil record, morphological change in the same direction over time (e.g., body size increase) in all lineages of a clade indicates a/an: O no evolutionary trend average evolutionary trend O active evolutionary trend O passive evolutionary trend O negative evolutionary trend
Refer to the image. Gibbon (20 species in 4 genera) Prosimians: Bushbabies New World and lemurs monkeys Apes Macmillan Learning Orangutan Old World monkeys Gibbons Great apes Gorilla Human Robust canine teeth Earlobes Bonobo Delayed puberty Chimpanzee The characters listed in the ancestral lineages certainly do not represent all the most important evolutionary changes that occurred in these ancestors. Rather, they are a sample of the changes that occurred at each stage.
Based on the phylogenetic tree, if you go back in time and look for species B, you will find that species B is not chimpanzee, gorilla, or human. True or false

A synapomophy is a shared, derived characteristic. This differs from a symplesiomorphy which is a shared_________________ characteristic. Synapomorphie characteristics are used to identify animals that share a common ancestor. For example, _________________share four synapomophic characteristics including a post-anal tail, a _________________ pharyngeal slits, and a dorsal hollow_______________ chord. These characteristics are derived in the MRCA of chordates, but_______________ in mammals.

Part I: Construct a phylogeny Below is a list of seven hypothetical, currently-living species (A-G), and eleven of their character states (i.e., traits). You will use these traits to construct your tree.
