Chapter 31, Problem 16TYU
Summary Introduction
To explain: The reason why the biologists have stopped using the type of body cavity as a major criterion for inferring relationship among the animals.
Concept introduction: Animal phylogeny is the rapidly changing field for the biologists. The members of the animal kingdom are incredibly diverse. However, there are certain common features that differentiate them from other organisms.

Accurately depict the evolutionary relationships among spiders, birds, porifera, homosapiens, lampreys, nematoda, tuna, clam and jellyfish by listing them in order from most closely related to most distantly related. Indicate where different types of body symmetry arise and where major evolutionary features originated in vertebrates.
Represent through a cladogram the evolutionary relationships among spiders,birds,porifera,homosapines,lampreys,nematodes,tuna,clam,andjellyfishby listing them in order from most closely related to most distantly related.indicate in the cladogram where different types of body symmetry arise in the evolutionary process
EVOLUTION CONNECTION Darwin suggested looking at aspecies’ close relatives to learn what its ancestors may havebeen like. Explain how his suggestion anticipates recentmethods, such as phylogenetic bracketing and the use ofoutgroups in cladistic analysis.

- Make a table separating the animals based on the physical properties such as: I. Presence or absence of a backbone II. Ability to breathe in air or water III. Cold or warm blooded IV. Carnivore, herbivore, or omnivore V. Presence or absence of hair/fur VI. Any other external structure such as horns After that, construct a phylogenetic tree (example is on the picture I uploaded)arrow_forwardYou have now studied three different types of anatomical structures. Homologous structures show individual variations on a common anatomical theme. These are seen in organisms that are closely related. 1. Give an example of a homologous structure from this activity: Analogous structures have very different anatomies but similar functions. These are seen in organismsthat are not necessarily closely related but live in similar environments and have similar adaptations. 2. Give an example of an analogous structure from this activity: Vestigial structures are anatomical remnants that were important in the organism's ancestors but are nolonger used in the same way. 3. Give an example of a vestigial structure from this activity:arrow_forwardAnswer the following questions about this phylogenetic tree. What animal represents the out group in this tree and why?

- Diagram Analysis Study the phylogenetic tree below and explain the phrase, “Man and ape, regardless of the sub-species of ape, shared more than the air they breathed”arrow_forwardLooking at the present, the evolutionary relationships between extant species can be seen in the presence of body parts sharing a common basic design. These structures are descended from a common ancestor. Sometimes, structures which no longer serve their original function are found in modern species. What is this structure?arrow_forwardUse the vertebrate lineage to explain how the cutaneous system (the skin) changed and evolved to life on land. Include which classes contributed key features and advancements. Your focus is on terrestrial vertebrates, but explain the basics of aquatic skin to show where the story started. Include how each change benefited that lineage in terms of their evolution to land (what niches did each new feature allow). HINT: Sometimes it's helpful to think in terms of Pros and Cons of the evolution of a feature. If you know I am looking for a word - bold or underline it.

- Evolution is the theory that species change over time. According to this theory, new species form from existing species through variation and natural selection. The evolutionary process is very slow and the transformation of one species into another requires thousands of years. Several evidences are used to prove evolution and somehow reconstruct how this process occur: 1.Fossil Records. 2.Homologous Body Structures. 3.Vestigial structures. 4.Similarity of embryo. 5.Geographical evidencearrow_forwardC.
