Herbivory (plant eating) has evolved repeatedly in insects, typically from meat-eating or detritus-feeding ancestors (detritus is dead organic matter). Moths and butterflies, for example, eat plants, whereas their "sister group" (the insect group to which they are most closely related), the caddisflies, feed on animals,

Take a look at the characteristics for these organisms. Plant Group Photosynthesis? Seeds? Water-conducting Tissue? Flowers? Ferns X Gymnosperms Mosses Angiosperms Using the characteristics from the table above, determine where each of these organisms belongs on the tree below, then answer the questions. A В What characteristic appears just before group C branches off (the starred location)? flowers water conducting tissue seeds O photosynthesisarrow_forwardEvolutionary theory predicts that species are related, not independent. Four of the following examples provide support for this prediction, but one is irrelevant. Which of examples listed below does not support the claim that species are related? O A. Many dinosaurs and other organisms went extinct following a huge asteroid impact at the end of the Cretaceous. O B. All prokaryotes and eukaryotes use DNA to carry their genetic information. OC. Before synthetic insulin was available, diabetics used injections of purified pig insulin to manage their disease. O D. Ground squirrel species found on the North and South sides of the Grand Canyon are very similar to each other. O E. The endostyle of lancelets (invertebrate chordates) and the thyroid gland of vertebrates develop similarly, and both produce iodinated proteins. «< Question 5 of 120 A Moving to another question will save this response. 11:51 AM 12/16/202 End F10 pgUP F11 PgDn F12 Home PrtScn F8 DII F5 F7 F6 F3 F4 F2 & #3 2$ 7 8 9.…arrow_forward
- Tree Thinking Review Draw a bracketed phylogenetic tree of the following groups on the next blank page: • Peat Moss • Capybara • Ostrich Fern • Blobfish • White Pine Tree • Protists • Escheria coli • Mexico Whiptail Lizard • Sunflower Sea Star • Bold Jumping Spider • T. Rex • Flatworm • Apple Tree • Archaea • Chanterelle Mushroom Grasshopper Sparrow After you draw your tree, label where the following traits would have evolved. Consider that traits may have evolved more than one time. • Chloroplasts • Seeds • Endosperm • Flowers • Vascular Tissue • Mitochondria Segmentation • Central Nervous System • Notochord • Vertebrae • Nucleus • Membrane Bound Organelles • Peptidoglycans • Cranium Fur • Lactation • Feathers Jaws • Hollow Dorsal Nerve Cordarrow_forwardFor Meal Worm give the reader background on the relevant science like the species, life cycle, habitat/ niche of each stage, and metabolism.

It refers to the relationship between ancestors and descendants and relationships among descendant taxa. It shows the lineage of taxa which can be summarized in a branching diagram called a phylogenetic tree.1. Express some basic evolutionary relationships among groups of microorganisms, plants, and animals; 2. Illustrate the relationship of organisms with their environment; and 3. Analyze environmental factors contributing to biodiversity richness and lossarrow_forward

Identify an interesting ecological or evolutionary research question, then design an experiment to address this question using a plant system. To come up with your research question, think of questions related to topics covered in lecture. The following questions are very general, but might give you some ideas as you develop your own, more specific, question.• Which species in a group of species is the best intraspecific competitor?• Which species in a group of species is the best interspecific competitor? • Is the best intraspecific competitor also the best interspecific competitor?• Does competitive exclusion occur between two species with similar ecological niches?• Does the outcome of interspecific competition change in different environments, or is the best competitor always the best competitor under all environmental conditions?• Similar to the question above –…arrow_forward
