4. Examine the species available in lab, along with three of your own choice, and fill out the character state table. Use the five pre-selected characters and then choose three of your own. 1. Halobacterium salinarum 2. Pyrolobus fumarii 3. Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans 4. Prochlorococcus marinus 5. Dictyostelium discoideum 6. Cyanidioschyzon 7. Saccharomyces cerevisiae 8. Aspergillus 9. Physcomitrella patens 10. Arabidopsis thaliana 11. Caenorhabditis elegans 12. Drosophila melanogaster 13. Mus musculus 14. (Choose your own adventure!) 15. (Choose your own adventure!) 16. (Choose your own adventure!) Character Eukaryotic cells Cell wall (any) Cellulose cell wall Photosynthesis Multicellular Unicellular (your choice) cell membrane (your choice) organelles (your choice) 6. Use your character table to create a phylogenetic tree. Attach it :)

Create a phylogenetic tree given the data table below, showing characters shared by fictitious organisms (an "X" indicates that the character is present). Indicate on the branches where each character evolved, using the number of the character (1-5) as labels in your tree (not the name of the character, the number, please). Upload a picture of your tree. Peerling | Maydog | Umbear | Bomwom | Ryncoon | Geewold | Deercat 1. Placenta 2. Opposable thumb 3. Single temporal fenestra (STF) 4. Amnion 5. Jaws

A TAKE-HOME EXAMPLE Complete the following exercise in building a phylogenetic tree at home before the lab period in which you'll explore Exercise 3b. You have the following information about four plant species. Plant X is the outgroup. Code the characters as ancestral or derived and then build a phylogeny. There may be more than one possible tree. If you have a character that occurs multiple times (in separate lineages) in the tree, indicate it with an asterisk (*).

Kingdom Plantae Complete the table below, called a character matrix. Place a check if the species has the trait and leave it blank if it does not. Using your tree above, identify the phylum of each organism in your box. Be sure to be able to explain why that organism belongs in that phylum.
