What types of organisms make up the domain Bacteria? Slide 24 / 68 24 List and describe some examples of organisms within the kingdom Protista. Slide 25 / 68 25 At the cellular level, what is the main difference between plants and animals? Slide 26 / 68 26 Slide 27 / 68 27 List the 8 phyla within the animal kingdom. Slide 28 / 68 28 Slide 29 / 68 29 As the blastula divides and folds inward it forms what structure? How do fungi differ from plants and animals? Class Work All animals begin life as a one-celled zygote. As the embryo begins to grow via cell division describe the first structure that appears. Slide 30 / 68 30 What two layers is the gastrula made up of? Slide 31 / 68 31 The cells that make up the endoderm ultimately become what part of the animal body system? Slide 32 / 68 32 Slide 33 / 68 33 In addition to the endoderm and ectoderm, most animals develop a 3rd layer of cells called the mesoderm. What does the mesoderm form? Slide 34 / 68 34 Slide 35 / 68 35 What are the two types of symmetry found in animal body plans? The cells that make up the ectoderm ultimately become what part of the animal body system? What does invertebrate mean? Slide 36 / 68 36 What are body tissues? Slide 37 / 68 37 What is a body cavity? Slide 38 / 68 38 Slide 39 / 68 39 What was the Cambrian explosion? Slide 40 / 68 40 Slide 41 / 68 41 During embryonic development most animals form three major tissue layers. Identify the 3 layers and the systems they each ultimately form. How old are the earliest animal fossils Why is it important to consider the Cambrian explosion when studying traits of modern day animals? Homework Slide 42 / 68 42 What distinguishing characteristics do organisms that fall within the domain Eukarya, kingdom Animalia, and phylum Chordata have? Slide 43 / 68 43 Differentiate between an animal with radial symmetry and an animal with bilateral symmetry. Slide 44 / 68 44 Slide 45 / 68 45 Describe the three types of body cavities. Slide 46 / 68 46 Slide 47 / 68 47 What type of body plan do humans exhibit? Class Work What is a hydrostatic skeleton? To which animal phylum do humans belong? Slide 48 / 68 48 What is a phylogenetic tree? Slide 49 / 68 49 What is a derived trait? Slide 50 / 68 50 Slide 51 / 68 51 How are phylogenetic trees produced? Slide 52 / 68 52 Slide 53 / 68 53 What is a cladogram? Why are features like radial symmetry, bilateral symmetry, and true tissue denoted on a phylogenetic tree? What does it mean to say phylogenetic trees are hierarchical? Slide 54 / 68 54 On a cladogram, how can you tell which organisms are closely related? Slide 55 / 68 Use the cladogram to answer questions #55 – 59 Slide 56 / 68 55 What characteristic do ferns have that mosses do not? Starting with a diagonal line, the out-group is placed on the first branch. Just past the first branch, the most common derived trait is listed; in this case vascular tissue is composed of tube-like cells. The branching point or node on a cladogram marks the point where shared derived characters arose. Next, the second most common derived trait is determined, which in this case is seeds. Ferns lack seeds and are thus placed on the second branch. The third most common derived trait is flowers. Conifers do not have flowers and are thus placed on the third branch. Flowering plants are placed at the end. Slide 57 / 68 56 What differentiates ferns from conifers? Slide 58 / 68 57 Slide 59 / 68 58 Are flowering plants more closely related to conifers or ferns? What characteristic do ferns, conifers, and flowering plants all have in common? Slide 60 / 68 59 What differentiates conifers from flowering plants? Slide 61 / 68 60 Name two new technologies that add to the specificity of phylogeny. Slide 62 / 68 61 Slide 63 / 68 62 How many years ago is detectible by the most advanced radioactive dating technique? Slide 64 / 68 63 Slide 65 / 68 64 What is the difference between a cladogram and an ultrametric tree? What is radiometric dating? What is compared when looking at the common sequences of DNA among species? Slide 66 / 68 65 If a cladogram has 8 evolutionary steps but a rearrangement of the species results in 6 steps, is the original parsimonious? Why? Slide 67 / 68 66 Which is more likely: Justin Beiber is more closely related to a banana than a chimpanzee, or vise versa? Explain in terms of maximum likelihood. Slide 68 / 68 67 Define parsimony.
