1. (1 point) Draw a rooted phylogeny that defines relationships among 7 taxa (A-G) such that the following conditions are satisfied. (a) taxon G is the outgroup; (b) taxon E is sister to taxon B; (c) taxa C, D, and A form a polytomy; (d) taxa C, D, A, and F form a monophyletic group; Use the phylogeny below to answer questions 2-3. Species A-F are closely related. The circles above each taxon reflect the presence or absence of a trait. 2. (1 point) What is the most parsimonious character history for the trait “circle color” on this phylogeny, i.e. what is the minimum number of changes required to explain its evolution on the above tree? Be sure to provide the number of changes AND indicate the character changes on the phylogeny. 3. (0.5 points) Assume the trait mapped above is wings. Open circles are wings absent, black circles are wings present. What is the most parsimonious interpretation of the evolution of wings? Highlight the correct answer a. wings first evolved in A and B b. wings were lost in C and E c. wings evolved independently in C and E d. wings evolved in the MRCA of C, D, E, F and were lost in D and F e. wings are homologous in C and E
