Chapter 10, Problem 3R
DRAW IT Use the additional information below to construct a cladogram for some of the organisms used in question 4. What is the purpose of a cladogram? How does your cladogram differ from a dichotomous key for these organisms?
| Similarity in rRNA Bases | |
| P. aeruginosa—M. pneumoniae | 52% |
| P. aeruginosa—c. botulinum | 52% |
| P. aeruginosa—E. coli | 79% |
| M, pneumoniae—C. botulinum | 65% |
| M. pneumoniae—E. coli | 52% |
| E. coli—C. botulinum | 52% |

Please consider providing detailed explanation
Give 5 species of genus agrobacterium. Then make a clade. The clade must observe the rules of constructing a cladogram. Synapomorphies must describe all organisms above it but not below it.
make a drawing of a phylogenetic tree that contains all 3 domains of life. The tree should include at least
three different animals, two plants, chemoheterotrophic bacteria, photoautotrophic bacteria,
chemoheterotrophic archaea, thermophilic archaea and fungi. Identify both primary endosymbiosis events
on the tree and draw a line to connect it to the organism that would become the future organelle.

- Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was the first person to use a microscope and describe tiny animalcules. What is an animalcule? Describe major characteristics of an animalcule in terms of microbiology. Describe the size and living state of these animalcules. Please include: How are animalcules classified/identified? How do you form these classification groups?

We will be focused on the general terms of bacteria and the only Phylum that will be addressed is the Cyanobacteria. Use the following to create a dichotomous key to begin to identify Bacteria: BACTERIA Bacillus Coccus Spirillium Phylum Cyanobacteria Gram (+) (-) Root nodules To Begin use the following question: Does the organism exhibit a membrane bound nucleus?arrow_forwardPlease create a phylogenetic (evolutionary) tree given this criteria and follow all points! There are three domains of life - Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. Start by drawing these three main branches. Then add branches for plants, animals, fungi, and protists. When adding all these branches, don't just add them randomly. The branching pattern reflects evolutionary relationships. You should use the relationships/branching patterns. Then add additional branches for • three species of bacteria • three species of archaea three species of plants three species of animals • three species of fungi • three species of protists (single-celled eukaryotes) You can pick any species you want. For each species, be sure to add 1 synapomorphy (shared derived character) that defines the species or group. • Finally, label the tree with all the terms (parts of a tree, not phylogenetic groups) when describing a phylogenetic tree.arrow_forward
