Lets consider the group known as tetrapods, these include Salamanders, Turtles and the Leopard. A. Are they a monophyletic group? (1 point) B. Is the Amniotic Egg ancestral or derived for this group (tetrapods)? (1 point) C. Is the Vertebral Column ancestral or derived for this group (tetrapods)? (1 point) Now consider the group known as fish, this includes the Lamprey and the Tuna. D. Is this a monophyletic group? (2 points) E. Why or why not? (1 point)

Female luna moths (actias luna) attract males by emitting chemical signals that spread through the air. a male hundreds of meters away can detect these molecules and fly toward their source. the sensory organs responsible for this behavior are the comblike antennae visible in the photograph shown here. each filament of an antenna is equipped with thousands of receptor cells that detect the sex attractant. based on what you learned in this chapter, propose a hypothesis to account for the ability of the male moth to detect a specific molecule in the presence of many other molecules in the air. what predictions does your hypothesis make? design an experiment to test one of these predictions.
