correct answers
Heterochrony - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Evolutionary change in
the rate or timing of developmental events (ex: human and chimp
skulls)
Paedomorphosis - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Sexually mature
species may retain body features that were juvenile structures in an
ancestral species
Macromutation - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Instantaneous change
in an organism with no intermediate species (heterochrony &
paedomorphosis)
Homeotic (Hox) Genes - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Determine
where on body specific features will develop
Monophyletic Clade - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔group on a
phylogenetic tree that includes common ancestor and all
1/9
, descendants
Paraphyletic Clade - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔group on a
phylogenetic tree that includes common ancestor and most
descendants (not all)
Polyphyletic Clade - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔group on a
phylogenetic tree that includes one ancestor and some/all
descendants and descendants of a different ancestor
Homologies - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔similarities between
organisms that forms the basis of a phylogenetic tree (can be
physical or genetic)
Orthologous Genes - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔similar genes
between species because the species share a common ancestor
(product of speciation)
Paralogous Genes - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔genes similar to
each other within a species, often created through gene duplication
(within species)
