Presentation Transcript

  1. Taxonomy • Linnaeus – Binomial Nomenclature • Study of naming and classifying organisms

  2. Phylogeny • Classification based on evolutionary history • Phylogenetic Trees

  3. Cladistic Analysis • Cladograms – based on order in time things branch (dichotomous branching)

  4. Cladistic Analysis • Homologies – similar due to evolution • Analogies – similar due to environment • Convergent Evolution

  5. Cladistic Analysis • Monophyletic – ancestor and all the descendents • Paraphyletic – ancestor and some of the descendents • Polyphyletic – multiple ancestors

  6. Cladistic Analysis • Primitive characteristic – ancestral (outgroup) • Derived characteristic – unique to clade

  7. Cladistics and Taxonomy • Clade patterns are used to place species into a hierarchy

  8. Parsimony • Simplest answer is probably correct

  9. Pitfalls • Analogy vs. Homology

  10. Reptilia???

  11. Domains

  12. Domain: Bacteria
