Examine the photographs of 16 species of anole lizards and sort them into as many groups as you want according to how they appea
r in the photographs. Explain how you grouped the lizards and your rationale for the various groupings. If you picked a body feature, speculate about the advantages or disadvantages of such a body feature in the environment that species occupies.
We grouped the lizards into various groups on the basis of similarities and differences in the body structure, appearance and colour etc. The legs of anole lizards are small legs with pads on their feet for gripping surfaces which give them the advantage to climb up the trees while on the other hand, these small legs can't help in the survival on the land because they can't run too fast from their predators with these short legs so these legs has benefit in climbing the tree but disadvantage in running on the land.
