Analyzing the following tree, prove the relationship between ray-finned fish and crocodiles using the characteristics given below. Include at least three (3) characteristics that the organisms DO NOT have in common and one characteristic that they DO have in common. Your paragraph should be at least four (4) sentences. Remember to answer in COMPLETE sentences and use proper grammar.

The Ray- Finned Fish has a bony skeleton just like crocodiles. Crocodiles evolved more and adapted to their environment. Along the way Crocodiles grew to have four limbs, were born from an amniotic egg, and then their eggs also have shells, unlike the Ray-finned fish. Therefore the three characteristics they do NOT have in common are: Four Limbs, Amniotic Egg, and Eggs with Shells. The one trait they do have in common is Bony Skeletons. They also both have vertebrae.

the eggs of the insects should be the first thing collected at the scene.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
