Dr. Paul discovers a new chemical that he predicts will increase energy levels in hamsters. He designs an experiment to test his

prediction.
Dr. Paul separates 12 hamsters into two equal groups. He gives one group of hamsters the chemical but does not give the chemical to the other group. He keeps everything else about the hamsters' living environment the same.

Over the next month, Dr. Paul measures the time that the hamsters spend running on their exercise wheels each day. He then calculates averages for these measurements, which are shown in the table below.

Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4
Average Time Spent on Wheel by Hamsters Given Chemical 4.4 hours/day 5.1 hours/day 5.6 hours/day 5.3 hours/day
Average Time Spent on Wheel by Hamsters Not Given Chemical 3.2 hours/day 2.5 hours/day 2.8 hours/day 3.0 hours/day


The data that Dr. Paul collects during his experiment
A.
are not valid because Dr. Paul did not use a control group in his experiment.

B.
support his prediction that the chemical will increase energy levels in hamsters.

C.
contradict his prediction that the chemical will increase energy levels in hamsters.

D.
are not valid because experiments cannot be done on living organisms.

Explanation:

A cladogram is used to show or illustrate hypothetical speciation and relationships between species. They are commonly used to classify animals.

The principle of parsimony argues that the simplest of competing explanations is most likely to be correct.  

In order to construct a cladogram that best reflects the evolutionary relationship of a group of species. Application of the principle of parsimony  will help in deciding which tree is most likely to have occurred based on the fewest character state changes.
