Branches
This type of diagram shows evolutionary relationships among organisms.
cladogram (or evolutionary tree)
This kingdom has multicellular organism that are autotrophs.
Plantae
This kingdom has autotrophs.
Plantae
Mammals, reptiles, and birds all share this developmental feature.
amniotic membrane
DNA and protein comparisons are considered this type of evidence when determining how closely species are related.
molecular evidence
Two organisms that branch from the same point on a cladogram share this.
What is a recent common ancestor?
Fungi and plants are both this type of organism.
This kingdom will be multicellular and reproduce sexually.
Animalia
The most reliable way to classify vertebrates is through this.
evolutionary relationship
The species at the base of a cladogram represents this important evolutionary concept.
common ancestor
both alligators and monkeys are invertebrates, but what is something that distinguishes them between mammals and other invertebrates like the alligator?
mammary glands and eggs.
Animalia
This kingdom contains organisms that are multicellular, photosynthetic, and have cell walls made of cellulose.
Plantae
This term describes two species that share a common ancestor.
related species
Two species share many traits, but scientists determine they are not closely related because the traits evolved independently. This type of similarity is shown by these structures.
analogous structures
This type of relationship is the main basis for modern classification systems.
What is evolutionary relationships.
Fungi are similar to plants as they have a cell wall and are eukaryotic and are in the kingdom fungi why are they not considered for the plantae kingdom.
They are heterotrophs. They cannot make their own food.
Mushrooms, molds, and yeasts belong to this kingdom, which absorbs nutrients and has cell walls made of chitin.
Fungi
Structures like a human arm and a whale flipper are examples of these, showing evidence of common ancestry.
homologous structures
On a cladogram, the point where two branches split represents this evolutionary event.
speciation
This domain contains a prokaryotic cell, with peptidoglycan present.
Bacteria
If there is a cell wall and a peptidoglycan is present then it must be a _______________ (Prokaryotic or eukaryotic) cell?
Prokaryotic.
In the traditional five‑kingdom system, this kingdom includes mostly unicellular organisms that don’t fit neatly into plants, animals, or fungi.
Protista
This diagram is used by scientists to show evolutionary relationships based on shared characteristics.
cladogram
DNA evidence showing fewer differences between two organisms indicates this about their evolutionary relationship.
share a more recent common ancestor
