Question
7. Identify 3 species that would likely have homologous structures (structures that are constructed similarly but might have a different function such as the bones in the wings of a bat, or the bones in the fin of a whale). Explain why they are likely to have these structures?

If there are more than two character states for the trait, decide what the order (polarity) is for primitive → derived. When in doubt, look at the state for humans- we are the most derived primate in this set, while the lemur is the least derived. On the lines below the table, write out the order of the character state for each of the traits. Trait "tooth comb" has been done for you.
