Summary Introduction
Introduction: The phylogenetic tree is a branching diagram that shows the pattern of evolutionary descent of different organisms. It paves the way to know the genetical and physiological relationship between different species or groups of organisms.

Which of the following is true regarding the way we define clades with characters? Select one:
a. Autapomorphies are good characters to use because they describe every lineage of the clade and no other lineages
b. Plesiomorphies are good characters to use because they describe every lineage of the clade and no other lineages
c. Synapomorphies are good characters to use because they describe every lineage of the clade and no other lineages

When reading a phylogenetic tree, which of the following is true regarding the evolutionary
relationships among the taxa represented on the tree?
Taxa located at adjacent tips of the branches are always more closely related to each other than to other taxa
on the tree. Therefore, a species is always equally related to the taxon on the branch immediately to the right
it and the taxon on the branch immediately to the left of it
The branch lengths always represent the amount of morphological change between taxa
The internal nodes (branching points) of the tree represent the most recent common ancestors of the taxa
connected by the branches
The position of taxa on the tree is completely arbitrary and does not reflect their evolutionary relationships
Which of the following is FALSE regarding phylogenetic trees?
1) The branch lengths on the tree are scaled to molecular (DNA) changes and/or time.
2)Phylogenetic trees have shown us that there is much more bacterial diversity compared to eukaryotes.
3) Phylogenetic trees show the evolutionary relatedness of different organisms.
4). The branch lengths on the tree depict abiotic and biotic factors affecting speciation.

Number 1 refers to closest.arrow_forwardIn the figure, the letters A-G represent individual species that all descended from a common ancestor.

- Please compare these phylogenetic trees and choose the most accurate statement about whether they are the same tree or not. A a Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. b с DCBE d E A They are not the same because the overall shape looks different. They are not the same because they show different relationships among species. Nodes have been rotated but the species relationships are the same. They are the same because they have the same species at their tips. D C Barrow_forwardDraw a simple phylogenetic tree for two sisters clades with a common ancestor. Each sister clade consists of two taxa. Define the following terms and use to label your diagram: clade, node, branch, common ancestor, and taxon.arrow_forwardBelow is an example of a particular kind of phylogenetic tree called a chronogram. Chronoograms are named because the length of the branches represents different lengths of time. Nodes are represented by vertical lines, and branches with horizontal ones. They can be arranged horizontally, with the most recent evolutions on the right. Given this information, the taxa that is most closely related to Dubautia ciliolata c. 529 (highlighted below) is _________________ (make sure to type exactly the same characters, including the numbers; do not italicize).arrow_forward

- Phylogeny refers to the evolutionary descent of taxa. It refers to the relationship between ancestors and descendants and relationships among descendant taxa. It shows the lineage of taxa which can be summarized in a branching diagram called a phylogenetic tree.1.

Why is this? 4) Choose one species (either alive today or extinct) and describe its taxonomic classification.
