1. In the primate phylogenetic tree below, fill in groups (a)–(e). Of the groups, which are anthropoids and which are apes?
To complete: The primate phylogenic tree (containing apes and anthropoids).
Introduction:
Primates are evolved about 65 million years ago. The characters of primates include limber joints, grasping hands and feet with flexible digits, a short snout, and forward-pointing eyes. Living primates are lorises, bush babies, and lemurs; the tarsiers; and anthropoids (monkeys and apes).
All primates are anthropoids: gibbons, orangutans, gorillas, monkeys, chimpanzees, and humans, but humans and chimpanzees are apes. Apes have larger brains than other primates, which include gibbons, orangutans, gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans.
Answer to Problem 1CC
Fig. 1 represents various groups of the primate phylogenic tree.
Pictorial representation: A phylogenetic tree showing various groups of primates is given in Fig. 1.
Fig.1: The primate phylogenic tree.
Explanation of Solution
(a)
Correct answer: Old world monkeys.
Old world monkeys are primates that belong to the super family Cercopithecoidea. Old world monkeys have tails. Hence, the correct answer is old world monkeys.
(b)
Correct answer: Gibbons.
Gibbons are the small, arboreal apes. They are distributed in the wild, in the tropical and subtropical forests of Southeast Asia. Hence the correct answer is gibbons.
(c)
Correct answer: Orangutans.
Orangutans are great apes, and they are closely related to humans. Hence, the correct answer is orangutans.
(d)
Correct answer: Gorillas.
Gorillas are ground-dwelling, herbivorous apes. They live mostly in the forests of central Sub-Saharan Africa. They show many human-like behaviors and emotions, (laughter and sadness). Hence, the correct answer is gorillas.
(e)
Correct answer: Chimpanzees.
Chimpanzees are the species of apes that are most closely related to humans. Chimpanzees are found in tropical forests and savannas of equatorial Africa. Hence, the correct answer is chimpanzees.

The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forward

In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules.
