I NEED HELP!! Answer questions 1 and 5!
A bear belongs to the phylum Chordata (because it has a spine), the class Mammalia (mammals have many distinguishing characteristics, including hair and producing milk for their young), the order Carnivora (will usually eat meat--some bears are exceptions in this category), the family Ursidae (the bear family of animals). The genus and species are the particular type of bear, in this case, let's say it's a brown bear. So our genus would be Ursus, and our species would be arctos.
1. Instead of a brown bear, in the taxonomy example in the lesson, let's say we had a giant panda. Which taxa would change? Find out what they would change too and report your findings here.
5. Find out which animal is actually most closely related to the hawk: shark, bat, or alligator. Report your findings and explanation here.
Explanation / Answer
Gaint panda belongs to the
phylum -chordata
class -mammalia
order -carnivora
family-ursidae
genus-Aliuropoda
species -A.melanoleuca
Gaint pandas differ from brown bears in their genus and species level.
Gaint pandas shows difference from bears in their genital structure,behaviour,hemoglobin sequences and RFLPS of mitochondrial genes.
5)Hawks are closely related to Alligators basing on the protein coding genes and also they have similar life style.
skeleton of the hawk is more similar to that of an aligator.
