Construct a cladogram using the data in the table below. Map the features onto the cladogram: Take a photo of your cladogram to upload, or scan it for upload: DERIVED TRAITS Amniotic Dorsal Mammary Keratinous TAXON Jaws Lungs Gizzard Feathers Egg Fin Glands Scales Lamprey Perch Salamander Lizard Crocodile Pigeon Dolphin Mouse

Use the tree below to answer the questions: a. Which taxa have jaws? b. Which character on the tree would be considered a unique derived trait? Why? c. Which taxon is sister to the leopard? d. Which group is the salamander most closely related to?
Sri K.
Construct an accurate phylogenetic tree using the following taxa as tips: Stingray (S), Olympic Torrent Salamander (OTS), Northern Flicker (NF), King Salmon (KS), Dungeness Crab (DC), Grizzly Bear (GB), Ord's Kangaroo Rat (OKR), Rubber Boa (RB), Nile Crocodile (NC), Frilled Anemone (FA), North Pacific Giant Octopus (NPGO), Northern Scorpion (NS). Label the node Tetrapoda and circle that monophyletic group. Place the following synapomorphies on the tree: endoskeleton, amniotic egg, Protostome development, opsin duplication, and divergence of skeletal & smooth muscle.
