Chapter 31, Problem 18TYU
Summary Introduction
To propose: A hypothesis that the insects undergo complete metamorphosis outnumbers those that do not by more than 10 to 1.
Hypothesis: Insects undergo complete metamorphosis outnumbers those that do not by more than 10 to 1
Introduction: Arthropods are considered as the most biologically successful animal group. The arthropods are more diverse group of animals and covered a greater range of habitats than other animal group members. According to various molecular data, eye structure, and genome analysis, the pancrustaceans are divided into two groups, namely crustaceans and hexapods (insects).

Build a phylogenetic tree consisting of the wasp, Pimpla rufipes and four other species. Ensure that the most basal species branches out first.
Pimpla rufipesSpecies A: possess a calcium carbonate shell and is found in marine environmentsSpecies B: Segmented worm, marine and possess bristles known as ‘setae’Species C: Bioluminescent, possess special cells known as colloblasts which are attached to tentaclesSpecies D: Parasitic roundworm found in the intestines of mammals; lacks segments, molts a cuticle.
