probable relationships of the animals.

This is a type of lizard making it a reptile like the turtle.

A rat-like animal would most likely be a placental mammal like the monkey.

Use "D. Procedure: Step 3" on the 2nd page of instructions to make a cladogram based on the data you tabulated and placed in the Venn diagram.

Abbreviate the animals that will be placed across the top of the cladogram by using the first letter of their name.

K= kangarro

L= lamprey

M= Rheus monkey

B= bullfrog

H= human

S= snapping turtle

T= tuna

After you have completed Question F. Return to this cladogram and put in lines for the 3 additional species. Use abbreviations:

I (for iguana-like), R (for rat-like), G (for goldfish like).

Use the Set Trait numbers for the nodes (#1-7) on the cladogram. You will have to add a hash mark (or circle or square) for each of the nodes. The cladogram backbone has been drawn for you.
