Bonobos and chimpanzees are sister groups. Humans, bonobos, and chimpanzees share a more recent ancestor than do humans and gorillas. Orangutans share an ancestor with all of these groups. Draw a cladogram that represents these relationships.

Assuming chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) and humans (Homo sapiens) are more closely related to each other than either is to gorillas (Gorilla gorilla), which of the following cladograms is correct? a. B b. A c. neither is correct d. both are correct
nvestigate the changes in taxonomy since Linnaeus. Note major changes, such as the recognition that sponges are not plants (Linnaeus thought they were), the changing classification of barnacles (Linnaeus thought they were bivalves), and the breakdown of Linnaeus’s phylum, Vermes (worms). 2) Draw a cladogram of the primates, referring to Chapter 22. Include Homo sapiens and the other extinct species of the genus Homo to the best of our current knowledge. Compare to the cladograms in several of the most recent references listed in Chapter 22.
