If you were looking for dinosaur fossils in sedimentary rocks, you would expect that ____. correct answers Younger fossils are found above older fossils. Using the trees, below, identify the gray shading that does NOT show a monophyletic group. correct answers Image Description: Common Ancestor produces Branch 1 and 2.

species - evolutionarily independent population or group of populations synapomorphy - a trait that is found in certain groups of organisms and their common ancestor, but is missing in more distant ancestors; identifies monophyletic groups; homologous traits that can be identified at the genetic, developmental, or structural level biological species concept - reproductive isolation between populations (they don't breed and don't produce viable, fertile offspring) - reproductive isolation...

LMU Entrance Exam (Evolutionary Bio, Ecology, and Systematics) Fecundity maximum reproductive output Semelparity : all offspring produced in single event (favored in stable and predictable environments) Iteroparity offspring produced in many events throughout life (favored by unstable environments) Grazers attack a large number of prey but cause little damage on the individual level (mosquitos leeches, flies are grazers) Parasites symbiotic relationship where hosts fitness decreased while paras...
