Chapter 31 Reading Quiz Question 5 11 of 13 - neview Part A What is one of the greatest evolutionary benefits of the body plan of flatworms? • View Available Hint(s) The shape of flatworms allows for them to easily exist in all aquatic and terrestrial environments. Most flatworms have a one-way digestive system that is the common ancestor for all one- way digestive tract animals. Flatworms have well developed appendages for locomotion. Thin flat bodies allow for efficient exchange of gases and nutrients form the environment. Submit

MAKE CONNECTIONS Historically, annelids and arthropods were viewed as closely related because both havebody segmentation. Yet DNA sequence data indicatethat annelids belong to one clade (Lophotrochozoa) andarthropods to another (Ecdysozoa). Could traditionaland molecular hypotheses be tested by studyingthe Hox genes that control body segmentation (seeConcept 21.6)? Explain.
The Evolution of the Stickleback Fish. Watch the ~15 minute video, Making of the Fittest: Evolution of the Stickleback Fish (https://youtu.be/Pv4Ca-f4W9Q) and the 1 minute video “Stickleback Fish Environment” (https://youtu.be/IRqLy3Oz-oM), both from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Answer the questions that follow: True or False? Having pelvic spines is always advantageous to a stickleback. In one sentence, explain your answer. True or False? Dramatic changes in traits, such as the loss of limbs, can occur through mutations affecting a single gene. Provide evidence for your answer. Below is a simplified schematic representation of some of the genetic elements involved in the regulation of Pitx1 gene expression (from HHMI BioInteractive). The large grey rectangle represents the protein-coding region of the Pitx1 The smaller rectangles to the left (b and c) are regulatory switches (networks of regulatory genes); each one allows a specific binding protein to interact with it and…
