Below is an example of a particular kind of phylogenetic tree called a chronogram. Chronoograms are named because the length of the branches represents different lengths of time. Nodes are represented by vertical lines, and branches with horizontal ones. They can be arranged horizontally, with the most recent evolutions on the right.
Given this information, the taxa that is most closely related to Dubautia ciliolata c. 529 (highlighted below) is _________________ (make sure to type exactly the same characters, including the numbers; do not italicize).
The universal phylogenetic tree of life shows the divergence of Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. Studies of Lokiarchaeota help
to elucidate these relationships, but the first universal tree of life was constructed by Carl Woese using ribosomal RNA
sequences. There are advantages to using different types of nucleic acid for different types of analyses.
What is a specific advantage of using small subunit ribosomal RNA (SSU rRNA) gene sequences for phylogenetic
analysis compared with DNA sequences?
▸ View Available Hint(s)
SSU rRNA sequences accumulate mutations more rapidly than protein-encoding DNA.
SSU rRNA is frequently transferred through horizontal gene transfer, whereas DNA sequences are not.
Primers are required in DNA sequence analysis, but not for SSU rRNA sequence analysis.
Although PCR products can be visualized with SSU rRNA, this is not the case with other forms of nucleic acids.
DNA sequences are too highly conserved to work well for sequence analysis; individual species are…
Which of the following is FALSE regarding phylogenetic trees?
1) The branch lengths on the tree are scaled to molecular (DNA) changes and/or time.
2)Phylogenetic trees have shown us that there is much more bacterial diversity compared to eukaryotes.
3) Phylogenetic trees show the evolutionary relatedness of different organisms.
4). The branch lengths on the tree depict abiotic and biotic factors affecting speciation.

- Phylogenetic trees are a type of model that can be used to show how organisms are related through common ancestry. The phylogenetic tree model represents nodes numbered 1 through 8. Using evidence from the phylogenetic tree determine which species would be MOST closely related to the species on branch C? Question options: The species on Branch A is most closely related to the species on branch C because they share the most recent common ancestor at node 1. The species on Branch B is most closely related to the species on branch C because they share the greatest number of common +ancestors. The species on Branch A & B are both most closely related to the species on branch C because they share the most most recent common ancestor at node 2. The species on Branches F, G, H, and I are all equally related to the species on branch C because they all split from a common ancestor at the same time which is illustrated by having nodes 2 and 7 at the…arrow_forwardMake a phylogenetic treearrow_forwardGiven the phylogenetic tree shown below, which of the following two species (A-F) most recently shared a common ancestor?

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
