1 Binomial Nomenclature 1a

2 A two-part scientific naming system using Latin words. Written in italics with Genus capitalized and species portion lower case. Ex. Quercus alba 1b

3 Clade 2a

4 A clade is a group of organisms that share certain traits derived from a common ancestor. 2b

5 Cladistics 3a

6 A classification system based on common ancestry 3b

7 Derived character 4a

8 Characters that have evolved in a species since sharing a common ancestor. These are shown as hash marks between the branches of a cladogram. 4b

9 Dichotomous Key 5a

10 A key used to identify organisms based on a series of choices between alternative characters (2 choices at each step) 5b

11 Genus 6a

12 Includes one or more physically similar species that are thought to be closely related. They are ALWAYS written in CAPITAL letters and italicized OR underlined. 6b

13 Hierarchical Classification 7a

14 Broad to most narrow (most members to least) Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species (Does King Phillip Came Over For Good Soup) 7b

15 Linnean Classification 8a

16 -Based on physical similarities -Each level includes the more specific levels below with the lowest level being subspecies. 8b

17 Node on a cladogram 9a

18 Each place where a branch splits in a cladogram. The node represents the most recent common ancestor shared by a clade. 9b

19 Phylogeny 10a

20 The evolutionary history for a group of species 10b

21 Species 11a

22 A group of organisms that can breed and produce fertile offspring. 11b

39 A clade is... 20a

40 a group of organisms that share certain traits derived from a common ancestor. A clade looks like the letter "V" that indicates all of the branches that extend to the right of the V 20b

41 How to interpret a cladogram? 21a

42 -derived characters on written on the continuous line as a hash mark -the closer 2 branches are on a cladogram the more closely related the organisms are -the further 2 branches are on a cladogram the less related the organisms are 21b

43 A node is... 22a

44 an intersection of 2 branches. It represents the most common ancestor 22b

45 Phylogeny is... 23a

46 the study of evolutionary relationships 23b

47 Phylogeny is based on... 24a

48 common ancestry and derived character 24b

49 What does a Cladogram show? 25a

50 a Cladogram shows features that are considered to be "innovative" or new features that serve some kind of purpose. These are called derived characters 25b

51 What is a Cladogram? 26a

52 it is a diagram that shows evolution relationships among groups 26b

53 What is a Cladogram based on? 27a

54 a Cladogram is based on Phylogeny 27b
