Construct a cladogram, similar to that shown in figure 7.6, using your hypothetical animals from questions 2 and 3. Make drawings of your animals.
FIGURE 7.6 Phylogenetic Tree Showing Vertebrate Phylogeny. A phylogenetic tree derived from evolutionary systematics depicts the degree of divergence since branching from a common ancestor, which is indicated by the time periods on the vertical axis. The width of the branches indicates the number of recognized genera for a given time period. Note that this diagram shows the birds (Aves) as being closely related to the reptiles (Reptilia), and both groups as having class-level status.
