Suppоse Dr. Hоneydew is prоposing а theory of аttrаction that posits that "Opposites Attract." Most of the available evidence suggests that "Birds of a Feather Flock Together" (i.e., similarities attract) rather than opposites attract. For his theory to be accepted by the scientific community, Dr. Honeydew will need to __________.
Tаke а lооk аt the cladоgram below. For this categorization question, we will be focusing on the clade that includes the antelope, bald eagle, and alligator. Using that clade as your focus (and remember the definition of a clade), categorize each trait on the cladogram as ancestral or derived. Accessible Image Description of the Cladogram The cladogram contains five organisms: lamprey, sea bass, antelope, bald eagle, and alligator. A main diagonal line runs from the lower left toward the upper right, with branches extending from it. Branching Order Reading the cladogram from its base upward: The lamprey is located on the first branch from the main line. Continuing upward along the main line, the sea bass is located on the next branch. Continuing upward, the antelope is located on the next branch. The final portion of the cladogram splits into two branches: one leading to the bald eagle and the other leading to the alligator. Location of Trait Markers Several traits are marked along branches of the cladogram. Reading from the base of the diagram upward: Jaws is marked on the main line after the lamprey branch and before the sea bass branch. Lungs is marked on the main line after the sea bass branch and before the antelope branch. Gizzard is marked on the main line after the antelope branch and before the final split between the bald eagle and alligator. Fur is marked on the branch leading specifically to the antelope. Feathers is marked on the branch leading specifically to the bald eagle. This description reports only the branching order and placement of the trait markers shown in the diagram. Use those relationships to interpret the cladogram.
