Question

nterpret the phylogenetic tree Humon Chimpanzee Mouse Trout Earthworm Rose Green alga Bacterium Drag "True" or "False" to the end of each statement Reset Help True Less evolution occurs in the long branches than occurs in the short branches. False This tree shows that a bacterium is the lowest form of life This tree could be rotated so that the branch for bacterium is on the top rather than the bottom of the tree. This tree shows that bacteria evolve into green algae, which evolve into plants, and so on The single branch for bacterium could be expanded to show the relationships of many species of bacteria The bacteria that are alive today are the common ancestors of all other organisms

Explanation / Answer

1.less ovulation occur in the long branches than the long branches...true

reason...it is conventional reprssentation that less evoluted are shown by longer branches and more evoluted are shown by short branches.you can see this pattern in diagram also.

2..this tree show that bacterium is the lowest form of life ..True

reason...in this phylogenetic tree bacterium is shown at the lowest postition and morr over it is represented by the longest branch.

3..this true could be rotated so that branch of bacterium is on the top of tree rather than the bottom...false

reason... bacterium is phylogeneticallly lowest in evolution.it cant ce on the top of this tree

ans 4..this tree shows that bacteria evolve into green algae which evolve into plant and so on...false

reason...bacteria and algae have a common origen.from that origen bacteria evolve and another mutated organism which firther evolved into green algae.

ans 5...false

ana 6 .false
