Using the phylogenetic tree shown state the basal taxon Usin

Using the phylogenetic tree shown, state the basal taxon Using the phylogenetic tree shown state the shared ancestral character for the entire group except for the lancelet State the number of monophyletic groups in the phylogenetic tree shown above Using the phylogenetic tree shown, which of the following represents a paraphyletic group Turtle + Leopard + common ancestor that possessed an amniotic egg Turtle + Leopard + Salamander + common ancestor that possessed four walking legs Salamander + Turtle + common ancestor that possessed four walking legs Salamander + Turtle + Leopard + Tuna + common ancestor that possessed hinged jaws All of the species combined (except for the Lancelet) + common ancestor that possessed a vertebral column What general affect do mutations have on organisms Mutations are generally positive or neutral and rarely negative Mutations are generally negative or positive; rarely neutral Mutations really don\'t have a pattern Mutations are almost always positive, rarely neutral or negative, e Mutations are generally either neutral or negative, rarely positive Which of the following may be defined as \"the ability to survive and reproduce\" and is measured on a scale that goes from 0-1 Fitness Adaptation Survivability Allele frequency Selectivity One of the spider species I work on is in the genus \"liocranids\" and the species name is \"unicolor.\" State the appropriate binomial for this species

Solution

Qn 3 Lancelet

Qn 4 The shared ancestral character for the entire group except Lancelet is that they all have backbone or vertebral column.

Qn 5 There is just one monophyletic group in this. It is Salamander, turtle and leopard.

Qn 6 Option d

Qn 7 Option e Mutations are generally either neutral or negative, rarely positive.

Qn 8 Option a The ability to survive and reproduce is called

fitness.

Qn 9 Binomial name is Liocranoides unicolor.
