00:01
Going right from the top for 1a, we have a matching section.
00:06
It starts with a derived form of a trait that's shared by a group of related species.
00:13
And this indeed would be a synapomorphy.
00:16
So we'll just write these down in the order of the blanks.
00:24
Next, we have the outgroup.
00:28
As an outgroup is a group of organisms that are closely related but are not direct, members of the group being studied.
00:36
And so oftentimes in cladistics, you'll have sort of, i'll just have this drawing in the side.
00:41
We'll have a little tree, perhaps, of organisms.
00:48
At each of the ends of the branches, they're being sort of an organism.
00:52
And this is sort of the group that's being studied.
00:55
We'll have an out group here, which is sort of the next closest related group of animals that is not within the group being studied.
01:02
And so this would be the out.
01:08
Third, we have.
01:09
Have an organism and all of its descendants that is a clade that's sort of the definition of the clade and finally um the point of divergence in which a a lineage splits um and that would be a node that's sort of another term used in cladistics quite commonly and so that is the answer to one a moving on to one b we have a multiple choice question here um that asks which of the following taxonomic group would have a species with similar phenotypes as a result of convergent evolution...
