Answer-
According to the given question-
we have to create a Phylogenetic tree for baboons, tamarins, mandrill, proboscis, humans, gorillas, and orangutans-
The above organisms are called primates and are very diverse ,from small size marmosets to very large gorillas and are divided into following 4 branches

Create a phylogenetic tree for: baboons, tamarins, mandrill, proboscis, humans, gorillas, and orangutans
Humans have 46 chromosomes while gorillas, orangutans and chimpanzees have 48. Make a simple tree to show the relationships among humans, gorillas, chimpanzees and orangutans based only on chromosome number. Identify the outgroup in your diagram. Is 46 chromosomes in humans derived or ancestral?
You are studying the source of new virus that has recently infected humans. You suspect that the virus was transferred from other primates (they exhibit a similar infection), specifically chimpanzees, gorillas, or orangutans. You sample blood from several infected humans and sequence some viral genes. You then build a phylogenetic tree with the human sequences and all the known strains from each primate. Draw a hypothetical phylogenetic tree that would suggest that the virus came from gorillas, and this transfer...
Which is the answer ?
Which of the following statements is true, based on this phylogenetic tree: New World monkeys Old World monkeys Gibbons Orangutans Gorillas Chimpanzees -Humans Select one: O New World monkeys evolved from Old World monkeys Humans evolved from chimpanzees O Old World monkeys share a common ancestor with humans O None of these are depicted by this phylogeny O Gibbons represent the sister taxon to Old World monkeys
4. Gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans are able to taste PTC, but chimpanzees and humans have also derived the capacity to be a non-taster via convergent evolution. Using the information in the table below, construct a phylogenetic tree that reflects these derived traits. "1" indicates the presence of the trait,"0" indicates the absence of the trait (4 marks). Traits Species PTC Taster Loss of PTC Taste Similar teeth, skull and genitals Gorilla Chimpanzee ree 1 1 1 1 1 1 Human...
Using the sequence below, create a phylogenetic tree using this unknown bacterial species and four related bacteria (there should be 5 branches in total on your tree). You will have to BLAST this sequence, and then create a phylogenetic tree as was described in class. The phylogenetic tree should be included in this assignment as a PDF or screen shot—the tree should not be hand-written.

Create a phylogenetic tree, for Nycticebus caucang, tell me its 5 closest "relatives". What do these organisms have in common? Do you think it's enough to say they are related? (SLOW - LORIS): Nycticebus caucang KINGDOM: Animalia PHYLUM: Chordata CLASS: mammalia ORDER: Primates FAMILY: Lorisidae GENUS: Nyctisebus SPECIES: caucang
Molecular biology techniques have led to molecular systematics – creating phylogenetic tree hypotheses based on DNA. You did this yourself in class, creating a phylogenetic tree that compared some major Phyla of animals. What is the basic concept behind using DNA to create these trees – what assumptions are made? Do you think this is a reasonable way to study evolutionary history of living things? Explain.
7) Please create a phylogenetic tree (cladogram) of these major deuterostome groups of animals. At each branch node, indicate the trait (or traits; or presence/absence) that you used to divide the groups. I know space is tight, but please write as legibly as you can! (11 pts; 1 pt each for node description—7 total, 0.5 pts each for group on the end of a branch—4 total): A) Reptilia B) Agnathans (Lampreys & Hagfish) C) Echinodermata D) Amphibia E) Osteichthyes F)...
