- Activity 3: Real World Application of Phylogenies Salve The world-famous hamburger chain, Peat's Patties, has been accused of selling hamburgers that are not actually made from beef. After multiple complaints, the United States Food Safety and Inspection Service obtained hamburger samples from Peat's Patties (Peat's Sample A and Peat's Sample B), extracted the DNA from the meat, conducted genetic sequencing and used the resulting sequences, along with DNA sequence data from other animals, to build a phylogeny that shows the relationship of Peat's Patties meat to other animals. Use the phylogeny below to determine if Peat's Patties is guilty of using alternative meat sources in their burgers. Bison Cow Goat Sheep 2.

An abundance of fern spores from several species was found above the K-Pg boundary, but none was found below. An abundance of fern spores was found both above and below the K-Pg boundary, but only one species was found below the boundary , and many species were found above the boundary. Many species of fern spores were found both above and below the boundary, but the total number of spores was greater below the boundary.arrow_forwardWhat are other adaptations that facilitated life on land and ultimately led to the formation of the first forests?
