Suppose you watch a video showing the development of an unknown animal. What clues can the developmental pattern give you about how this organism is classified?
Describe the radiation in vertebrate forms from phylotypic stage by focusing on three groups of vertebrates and then tracing the development of several homologous features in each group. Connect specific embryological structures in the phylotypic stage to divergent morphological structures in the adults of each of these groups. (Answer all questions, if possible)
Outline the evolution of humans from early primates.Include in your discussion such features as binocular vision,grasping hands, bipedal locomotion, toolmaking, and brainexpansion.

- Identify whether the evidence is an example of comparative anatomy (homologous structure or analogous structure), embryology, DNA analysis or fossil record. A dig at Kalinga in Luzon’s Cagayan Valley has uncovered a near-complete skeleton of an “Ice Age” rhinoceros that was butchered around 700,000 years ago. Early stages of developing fish and human both have gill slits. In fish they develop into gills, but in humans they disappear before birth. Humans and chickens both code for insulin, but the genes have fewer similarities, revealing that humans are more closely related to monkeys than fowl. The human arm is composed of the same set of bones just as the arms of lizard but may not have the same function. Penguins and fish have fin-like structures to help them navigate through their aquatic environments.arrow_forwardApply the concept of shared derived characters to the classification of organisms.arrow_forwardComplete the tablearrow_forward
