MAKE CONNECTIONS Many new animal body plansemerged during and after the Cambrian explosion. Incontrast, cnidarians today retain the same diploblastic,radial body plan found in cnidarians 560 million yearsago. Are cnidarians therefore less successful or less “highlyevolved” than other animal groups? Explain.(See Concepts 25.3 and 25.6.)
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.
See attached. 1. Which pair of animals in numbers 1-3 belongs to a common ancestral group? Explain your answer.2. Fossils and anatomical records both provide pieces of evidence of evolution. How do you determine the age of fossils of an Aurorazhdarcho micronyx and an Archeopterix?
