QUICKTHINK
On the basis of the following cladogram,
please infer the evolutionary history for cat
coats to provide an explanation for how
the leopard got its spots.

("one family"

blue, green and the last one are all monophytic: they nest within each other. So one larger Mono group nested the other one

When/ why did humans start to wear clothes

human lice:

head live in hair


body live in clothes

hypothesis:

body lice diverged from head lice


when clothes-wearing originated

lice are unique to us;


us wearing clothes may have led to their speciation.

bootstrap: computer resamples and creates the cladograms. and we see how many times
the same cladogram/ two species appear: bootstrap rule

only message: as the species increase, number of possibel arrangments and topologies increase dramatically, which makes it hard for us to
do it by hand
