content (7 points) and grammar and spelling
(3 points).
ACTIVITY 3: A GUESS
A phylogenetic tree is a diagram that represents
evolutionary relationships among organisms.

Phylogenetic trees are hypotheses, not definitive


facts.
1.Based on what you have studied, what is the
definition of hypothesis?
2. Scientists are
gathering evidences to
help classify living
organisms and show
evolutionary relationship.
What are their bases for
building phylogenetic
trees?
- educated guess or prediction
about the relationship between
two variables

-a tentative explanation or
statement that can be proven
wrong

–guide experiments and empirical


research
Evolutionary relationships
display common ancestry for
populations and species using
several pieces of evidence.
This can be in the form of
morphological or molecular
phylogeny.

Phylogenetic tree provides a
visual output of relationships
based on shared or divergent
physical and genetic
characteristics.

correct, otherwise write Bluff
on the paper.
1. Fossils were grouped
by scientists and used
as evidence for
classification of living
things.
2. A phylogenetic
tree can be read
like a map of
evolutionary
history.
3. The lineage that
evolved early from
the root and
remains
unbranched is
called sister taxa.
