In this image we see three different mammals: From ?
left to right, first we have the Flying Lemur (which is
closely related to primates),then the flying squirrel (a
rodent, closely related to the gray squirrels you see
around the city) and the sugar glider (a marsupial that
lives in Australia). All those three species do have a
patagium (patagia, plural), which is a flap of skin that
extends from their forearms to their back legs, which
allows them to glide from tree to tree using the
patagia as a sail. From the patterns of speciation you
studied, which one do you think best explains the
patagia in these three different species? Why?

The "Cambrian Explosion" refers to the sudden As more species form, higher diversity will arise, which will lead to more
appearance in the fossil record of complex animals equilibrium. Then after these short bursts, there will be long periods with
with mineralized skeletal remains. It may represent little evolutionary change.
the most important evolutionary event in the history
of life on Earth. One of the most famous (or infamous)
theories about the pace of speciation, the
Punctuated Equilibrium, was formulated by Niles
Eldredge and Stephen Jay Gould. Based on the
evidence provided by events such as the Cambrian
Explosion and other fossil records (specially
gastropods) they argued that the slow gradual
changes (the gradualistic explanation) would not be
the most accurate model for explaining the diversity
of life. In your own words, explain the Punctuated
Equilibrium theory.
