Answer:

In parasitic insects such as lice, the melanism is an evolutionary strategy of adaptive significance  

Explanation:

In lice, different body colors represent an adaptive advantage because this feature should enable them to host on different hair colors and be undetected by the host. Therefore, different colors confer to this species the capacity to survive in different types of environments (i.e., hair colors)

Which data would not affect maximum likelihood estimates of phylogenies when comparing different tree hypotheses?.
Leona [35]

The set of species derived from one common ancestor.

To build phylogenetic trees, a variety of data can be employed, including genetic information, mitochondrial DNA sequences, ribosomal RNA genes, and any relevant genes, as well as morphological information such as structural characteristics, organ kinds, and specific skeletal arrangements

<h3>What is a Phylogenetic tree ?</h3>

A phylogenetic tree, also called a phylogeny, is a diagram that shows the evolutionary branches from which various species, creatures, or genes have descended from one another.

  • A phylogenetic tree can be used to track a species' evolutionary history back via the tree's branches and find their common ancestors along the way.

  • A lineage may preserve some of its ancestors' characteristics over time, but it will also change over time to accommodate the environment.
