CHECK YOUR PROGRESS
1. Describe how the changing species concept has affected classification
systems.
2. Summarize the different concepts of a species.
3. Describe some methods used to determine phylogeny.
4. Organize the following derived characters on a cladogram in order of ascending
complexity: multicellular, hair, backbone, unicellular, and four appendages.
6. Indicate the hypothetical evolutionary relationship between two species if their DNA
sequences share a 98 percent similarity.
