Lab 7: Evolutionary Relationships, Phylogeny, & Fungal Diversity
Week of October 24, 2022
PreLab:
To prepare for the PreLab quiz:
• Read over the whole lab.
• Refer to Chapters 26 and 31 of your eText for more information.
• Phylogenetics of Alien Arthropod:
o Review the “Phylogenetic terms to Know” on pages 2 and 3.
• Kingdom Fungi-fill in the definitions of the Fungi Terms to Know on page 7.
• When you have finished, complete the PreLab quiz in Blackboard. You may use the lab
and your eText while you are working on the quiz. The quiz is due before you meet with
your lab section.
Preparation:
• Reread the Laboratory Safety Guidelines and come to lab dressed appropriately.
• NO FOOD or DRINK is allowed in the Lab. Take it to the hallway.
• Read through the entire set of exercises before lab and mark anything you will need to
ask about. This will prepare you to work more efficiently in lab because you might not
have to read through all the background information while you could be doing the
activities.
Phylogenetics Terms to Know:
• Analogous trait – A character that is similar in structure and function between species
but was not present in the most recent common ancestor. Analogous traits are the result
of convergent evolution.
• Binomial nomenclature – A formal system of naming species of organisms using a
twopart Latin format (genus and species) that was instituted by Carolus Linnaeus in the
