Question

Complete the phylogenetic tree by matching each characteristic that arose during the evolution of animals to its correct position. ( Start from top to bottom boxes)
OPTIONS:

Backbone

Tissues

Coelom

Segmentation

Endoskeleton

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct characteristics are - tissue, coelom, segmentation, endoskeleton, and backbone from top to bottom boxes.

Explanation:

This phylogenetic tree showing the evolution and relatedness of the different organisms on their shared characteristics. In the given phylogenetic tree there are some characters are missing and we can predict or state them on the basis of evolution and studying the characteristics.

After the Porifera phylum tissue-level organization is found in the organism hence Tissue would be placed in the first box.

The coelom is found organisms above the Nematoda level, which further include a character segmentation in Annelida and Arthropoda. Another lineage from arising with the coelom organism that included endoskelton and backbone.

Thus, The correct characteristics are - tissue, coelom, segmentation, endoskeleton, and backbone from top to bottom boxes.
