Refer to figure 13.25 and the chapter content to answer the followingquestions.1. Review the Survey the Landscape figure in the chapter introduction.What diagrams do scientists use to visualize evolutionaryrelationships? Add this term to the concept map. 2. Write a phrase to connect fossils and biogeography and a separatephrase to connect development and DNA. 3. Add the following terms to this concept map: homologous structures,vestigial structures, homeotic genes, and molecular clock.

6. According to the rule of maximum parsimony, is it MORE LIKELY that whales lost their
hooves or that pigs, deer, cattle, and camels independently gained hooves?
7. Phylogenetic trees can change depending on which trait or gene sequence you use to
classify the organisms (see the diagram above). How is this possible? Hint: you can use the
terms mosaic evolution or haplotype in your answer
n which situation would it make sense to use the morphological species concept?
When you are able to collect data about how individuals in your study use their habitat, but you are unable to determine if they interbreed
When working with fossils from extinct organisms
When you only have genetic data about each organism in your study
When you are not able to collect data about how individuals in your study use their habitat, but you are able to collect reproductive data

- Using the picture below, make a phylogenetic tree. Make sure that all seven (7) creatures, including the outgroup, are on the tree and assigned their own branch. Make sure all parts of the tree are properly labeled. Circle the different clades/monophyletic groups (many will be overlapping and that's okay). ALSO, In the lineage leading to each new node, be sure to indicate the shared derived character and how it has changed (e.g., if the synapomorphy was having eyes, we would indicate this on the tree by drawing something like this no eyes > eyes). Don't forget to add the root! Finally, circle all your clades/ monophyletic groups and give them informative names like a good little systematist! Please follow all these steps to create the phylogenetic tree. Do it correctly and completely. Do not use previous versions/answers.arrow_forwardGive typing answer with explanation and conclusion What are the similarities and differences between convergent evolution and divergent evolution and an example of each?arrow_forwardDraw a cladogram showing the evolutionary relatedness of the four organisms below.

- When building a phylogenetic tree, where do you place a number used to designate a change in character state?options: at a mark crossing the branch for the species that exhibits the new state at a node where two branches diverge at the end of a branch between the last species to exhibit the old state and the first to display the new statearrow_forwardConstruct a character matrix with at least five characters for organisms beetle, pigeon, perch, salamander, and a mouse. (Pay attention to eyes, legs, number legs, antennae, body type/form; not limited to here). Then construct a phylogenetic tree using the character matrix and map the synapomorphies.arrow_forwardCompare and contrast Lamarckian and Darwinian theories of evolution. Give an example of each.

A cladogram is a diagram that shows relations among organisms. A cladogram uses lines that branch to end at groups of organisms with a common ancestor. The image shows the relationship among groups A, B, and C. Closely related organisms will have one or more SHARED TRAITS, indicated by the green and orange circles. 1. Which two organisms are most closely related? 2. The green dot indicates a trait that is shared by every animal on the diagram. Suggest a trait that would apply. 3. Animals A & B share a trait that animal C does not have, indicated by the orange circle. Suggest a trait that would apply.
