Although scientists have identified more than 2 million species on Earth, they estimate that there are millions more yet to be identified. As one example, there are 2,000 different species of shrimp recognized today. In 2009 in Indonesia, the hobbit shrimp, a hairy limbed little shrimp was discovered. The tiny, 1 cm long, shrimp apparently lives symbiotically within the tubular holes of another organism. The hobbit shrimp was given the name Odontonia bagginsi. Scientists continue to study the habits and characteristics of the hobbit shrimp today to see if they can discover more about its evolutionary relationships. Explain how scientists would place the hobbit shrimp on a cladogram to show evolutionary relationships with other organisms. Include the following ideas in your response:

•Describe the various pieces of evidence scientists would use when deciding where to place the hobbit shrimp (Consider the most compelling evidence)
• Outline HOW the evidence would be used to justify the evolutionary relationships and the placement of the hobbit shrimp on a cladogram. Use at least four lines of evidence in your explanation.
• Discuss what types of other organisms the scientists would compare the hobbit shrimp to when deciding where to place it on a cladogram. Time left for this SOGG

Rease is an enzyme used by plants to break down urea (a nitrogen-containing compound) into carbon dioxide and ammonia. urease urea > > > carbon dioxide and ammonia ammonia is broken down by plants into a nitrogen source plants need to grow. thus, plants could not use urea as a nitrogen source unless it was first converted to ammonia. in soybean plants there are two different kinds of urease, one produced in the seeds and the other produced in the leaves of the plant. three types of soybean plants were used in a set of experiments: normal soybeans and two mutant strains, one lacking the urease in the seeds only (strain 1) and one lacking urease in the leaves only (strain 2). experiment 1 separate areas in a field were planted with normal, strain 1, and strain 2 soybeans. all types of soybeans appeared to grow, flower, and produce seeds equally well. there were no externally detectable differences among the strains. experiment 2 small pieces of plant leaves of equal weight were obtained from each type of soybean plant and separately placed on media in culture dishes. tissue growing in this way will become an unorganized clump of cells referred to as callus. to provide a controlled nitrogen source, half the tissue samples of each type were placed on media containing urea, and the other half of the samples were placed on media containing ammonia. after 30 days, the weight gain for each of the callus samples was determined. results are shown in the table below.
