Exercise: Many older classifications are not monophyletic, and do not reflect the evolutionary relationships among species. As an introduction to phylogenetic classification, think about the tetrapods (animals with four legs). These animals have traditionally been classified into four groups, all of the same rank: Class Amphibia (frogs, salamanders, newts, etc.) Class Reptilia (snakes, lizards, crocodiles, turtles, etc.) Class Aves (birds) Class Mammalia (mammals) Reptiles possess a common ancestor with certain extinct amphibians, the birds are derived from a group of...

Both ancestral birds and ancestral mammals shared a common ancestor that was terrestrial. Today, penguins (which are birds) and seals (which are mammals) have forelimbs adapted for swimming. What term best describes the relationship of the bones in the forelimbs of penguins and seals, and what term best describes the flippers of penguins and seals?

Birds, unlike mammals, have a sex determination system in which females have Z and a W chromosome (ZW), while males have two copies of Z (ZZ). Another fun fact: most bird species, including chickens, do not have penises. This makes it hard to determine the sex of baby chicks! There’s a gene required for pigmentation located on Z. The “barred” allele (b) of this gene is recessive to the black allele (B). If you would like to easily determine the...
