10 PROBLEM 1. The following table presents data on some characteristics found in vertebrates. A + indicates that an organism has a particular characteristic and a indicates that an organism does not have a particular characteristic. Characteristics Organism Jaws Limbs Hair Lungs Tail Lamprey + Turtle Cat Gorilla Lungfish Trout + + Human Using these data, construct a cladogram illustrating the evolutionary relationships among these organisms. Each branch point should indicate a common ancestor. Write the name of the shared character that is common to all organisms above each branching point. A shared character can be the absence of a structure common to organisms below that point on the tree. Write your answer in the space below. ANS: Students cladograms should look something like the one depicted below. (A student s cladogram should also be considered correct if the gorilla and the human are placed in opposite positions.) DIF: 3 OBJ:
11 ESSAY 1. Why might the use of common names to describe organisms sometimes cause confusion? Give several examples to support your answer. Write your answer in the space below. ANS: The use of common names to describe organisms may cause confusion because common names may not describe an organism accurately. For example, a jellyfish is not a fish. Sometimes the same common name is used for different species. For instance, a maple tree might be a sugar maple, a silver maple, or a red maple. (Other answers are also possible.) Also, some organisms have more than one common name, depending on the region in which they are found. DIF: 2 OBJ: While on a biological expedition to a tropical rain forest, you discover a previously unidentified animal. Explain the guidelines you would follow to choose a genus and species name for the animal. Write your answer in the space below. ANS: Based on the animal s physical characteristics, you would decide if it belongs in a known genus. If it does, it must be given that generic name. If a new generic name is needed, it should be descriptive. The species identifier may describe the appearance or lifestyle of the organism or may be given in honor of an individual. The given scientific name must be Latin or constructed according to the rules of Latin grammar. DIF: 2 OBJ: The red fox (Vulpes vulpes), the coyote (Canis latrans), and the dog (Canis familiaris) are all members of the family Canidae. The mountain lion (Felis concolor) is a member of the family Felidae. Describe the relationships among these animals. Write your answer in the space below. ANS: Since the coyote and the dog are both members of the same genus, they are the most closely related. The red fox is more closely related to these two animals than to the mountain lion since the mountain lion is in a different family. DIF: 2 OBJ: A species is defined as a group of organisms that are similar and can interbreed and produce fertile offspring in nature. Horses and donkeys can interbreed and produce mules, which cannot produce offspring. Is it possible that horses and donkeys belong to the same species? Explain. Write your answer in the space below. ANS: Horses and donkeys cannot belong to the same species because their offspring, mules, are infertile. DIF: 2 OBJ:
12 5. What are the main criteria currently used to classify organisms? Write your answer in the space below. ANS: Scientists use fossils, homologous features, patterns of embryonic development, chromosomes, and macromolecules such as DNA and RNA to classify organisms. DIF: 2 OBJ:
4. Why are common names not good to use when classifying organisms? Give an example.
