The phylogenetic tree illustrates the relationship between humans and our closest living relatives. The tree was based on bioche
mical comparisons, including DNA and amino acid sequences. According to the biomolecular data, we COULD infer that
A)
the four organisms do not have a common ancestor.
B)
humans are more closely related to chimps than any other apes.
C)
chimps are more closely related to gorillas than they are to humans.
D)
there is no evidence if any relationship between the four branches on the tree.
Based on the cladogram, if moths undergo complete metamorphosis, we would MOST LIKELY infer that
A)
butterflies and flies do as well.
B)
all the insects undergo complete metamorphosis.
C)
no other insects undergo complete metamorphosis.
D)
only butterflies also undergo complete metamorphosis.
According to the cladogram, which of these were the direct ancestors of the Kingdom Fungi?
A)
Animalia
B)
Archaebacteria
C)
Plantae
D)
Protista
Trey is looking at a cell under the microscope. It is attached to many other cells, and it has a nucleus and membrane bound organelles. It has no cell wall. In which kingdom should this organism be classified?
A)
Animalia
B)
Archaebacteria
C)
Fungi
D)
Plantae
A review of the cladogram shows a common ancestor for these four types of vertebrates. Which statement BEST explains the genetics represented by the cladogram?
A)
There are no genetic similarities among the four distinct types.
B)
The four types of animals no longer have any genetic similarities.
C)
Lizards and snakes are more genetically alike than lizards and birds.
D)
A common ancestor indicates that the four once had identical genotypes.

When Linnaeus developed his system of classification, there were only two kingdoms, Plants and Animals. But the use of the microscope led to the discovery of new organisms and the identification of differences in cells. A two-kingdom system was no longer useful. Today the system of classification includes six kingdoms.
