    The document provides an example of constructing a cladogram to depict evolutionary relationships between taxa. It includes a table of characters for different taxa including shark, bullfrog, kangaroo, and human. The taxa are grouped based on their shared derived characteristics in a Venn diagram and then converted into a cladogram to infer evolutionary relatedness based on common ancestry.

    Cladogram: Infer Evolutionary Relatedness


    Cladograms are diagrams which depict the relationships between different groups of taxa called
    “clades”. By depicting these relationships, cladograms reconstruct the evolutionary history (phylogeny) of the
    taxa. Cladograms can also be called “phylogenies” or “Trees”. Cladograms are also constructed by grouping
    organisms together based of their shared derived characteristics.
    Example of Constructing a Cladogram
    Taxa
    Character Shark Bullfrog Kangaroo Human
    Placenta: Human
    Vertebrae x x x x
    2 pair of x x x Mammary Glands:
    limbs Kangaroo
    Mammary x x
    Gland
    2 pair of limbs: Bullfrog
    Placenta x
    Vertebrae: Shark

    1. Given these character and taxa: 2. Draw a Venn diagram. Start 3. Convert the Venn Diagram into
    with the character that is a cladogram.
    shared by all the taxa on the
    outside. Inside each box, write
    the taxa that have only that set
    of characters.

    Activity:
    Convert the following data table into a Venn diagram, and then into a cladogram. Use another sheet of paper if
    necessary. (15 points)
