5. A and C

What I Have Learned:

Activity 5

(1) Fossil were grouped and used as evidence and basis for further classification of
living things. The evolutionary history of a group of organisms is called (2) phylogeny from
the Greek word phylon which means “tribe” and genesis which means “origin”.
A (3) phylogenetic tree can be read like a map of evolutionary history. Rooted
phylogenetic trees have single lineage at the base representing a common ancestor.
Structures of phylogenetic tree are tip or terminal node, basal taxon, sister taxa, polytomy
and root. (4) Branch point is the point where split occurs. Lineage that evolved early from
the root and remains unbranched is called (5) basal taxon. A branch with more lineages is
polytomy while (6) root shows that ancestral lineage gave rise to all organisms on the tree.
The four groups of evolutionary trees are monophyletic, paraphyletic, polyphyletic
and soft polytomy. (7) Monophyletic group is also called clade which shows common
ancestor and all their descendent. (8) Paraphyletic group refers to recent common ancestor
but not all descendent are included. (9) Monophyletic group includes recent common
ancestors are not included only distant relative. (10) Soft polytomy indicates that branching
is unknown.
