Textbook Question
Chapter 20.3, Problem 3CC
WHAT IF? Draw a phylogenetic tree that includes the relationships from Figure 20.16 and those shown here. Traditionally, all the taxa shown besides birds and mammals were classified as reptiles. Would a cladistic approach support that classification? Explain.

WHAT IF? Fossils show that dinosaurs originated200–250 million years ago. Would you expect the geographic distribution of early dinosaur fossils to be broad(on many continents) or narrow (on one or a few continents only)? Explain.
WHAT IF? Suppose gene A is orthologous in species 1and species 2, and gene B is paralogous to gene A inspecies 1. Suggest a sequence of two evolutionary eventsthat could result in the following: Gene A differs considerably between species, yet gene A and gene B show littledivergence from each other.
WHAT IF? Suppose that two species, A and B, havesimilar appearances but very divergent gene sequences,while species B and C have very different appearancesbut similar gene sequences. Which pair of species is morelikely to be closely related: A and B or B and C? Explain.

- \. Read some papers (find them using any of several literature-search engines that your instructor can suggest) that make different estimates of the timing of either the origin of bilaterian animal phyla or the orders of mammals. How different are the estimates based on molecular clock evidence versus paleontological evidence? What might account for these differences, and how might they be resolved?arrow_forwardHello, I need help answering number 5 questions using the phylogeny below pls & thank you! 5.a) In the 1990s, when only mitochondrial DNA sequencing was available, geneticists claimed that there was no hybridization between humans (Homo sapiens) and Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis). Does the phylogeny shown above support the claim humans did not hybridize with Neanderthals in the past? How can you tell? b) Once nuclear DNA sequencing became fast and able to handle sequencing ancient DNA, living humans were found to have some Neanderthal genes. Is this finding clear evidence that some early modern humans did indeed hybridize with Neanderthals? Why? c) Did female H. sapiens hybridize with Neanderthal males to produce fertile offspring that then back-crossed with modern humans? What does the graph say about this? d) Did male H. sapiens hybridize with Neanderthal females that then back-crossed with modern humans? What does the graph say about this?
