Question
Chapter 21, Problem 24WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Some model of vertebrate and invertebrate animals that have involved into the scientists knowledge of general biology and animal biology. Enlist the other genomes of animals that scientists have sequenced and what is the resulting uncovering?
Concept Introduction:
Vertebrate and invertebrate animals have greater contribution to the scientific study of animal biology. The study of animal is important to the scientists for understanding the modern biology. The model organism such as round worms, mice, yeast and drosophila are used to investigate the molecular mechanism and other function of a eukaryotic cell. These organisms are chosen on the basis of their ease for genetic analysis.

Assume that you discovered Caenorhabditis elegans that crawl significantly slower than others. How would you determine whether this behavior was due to an injury from the environment or to an inherited trait? A goal of using animal models is to explain the molecular detail of specific behaviors encoded in the human brain. How would you compare the developmental biology experiments on memory and learning using the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, as evidence about the evolution of a human behavior?
How is modularity beneficial to animal specialization during the course of evolution? Illustrate your explanation with an example.
Using the information in the Reading file part II and textbook, answer the following questions:
Whales possess vestigial organs in the form of pelvic girdle and hind limb bones. How would you explain this?
How can you explain that, while forelimbs of bats and human arms are used for vastly different purposes, they do have similar anatomy?

- You are a scientist trying to determine the relationship between the organisms below. On a separate sheet of paper create a cladogram that represents how these animals are related. the words below in bold, must be used on your cladogram 1. Divide the animals into two groups depending on if they possess vertebrae. 2. Divide the vertebrates into groups according whether they have an amniotic egg or not. (Hint: keep the animals who give live birth with the amniotic egg animals.) 3. Divide those who have amniotic eggs according to the presence of an exoskeleton. 4. Divide those with endoskeleton according to whether or not they give live birth. 5. Divide those with live birth depending on if they possess opposable thumbs. 6. Return to your invertebrates. Divide them according to the presence of an exoskeleton. 7. Divide those with exoskeletons according to whether they possess wings.
