Branch point:where lineages diverge
This branch pointrepresents the commonancestor of taxa A−G.
This branch point forms apolytomy: an unresolvedpattern of divergence.

• Did baleen whales evolve from toothed whales?– No! Do not assume that a taxon evolved from the
taxon next to it.

Concept 20.2: Phylogenies are inferred from morphological and molecular data
• The similarities used to infer phylogenies must result from shared ancestry.
• Bat and bird wings are homologous as forelimbs, but analogous as functional wings.

Evaluating Molecular Homologies
• Analogous structures or molecular sequences are also called homoplasies.
• Molecular homologies are determined based on the degree of similarity in nucleotide sequence between taxa.
• What happens in a frameshift mutation?
• Systematists use computer programs when analyzing comparable DNA segments from different organisms.

• Shared bases in nucleotide sequences that are otherwise very dissimilar are called molecular homoplasies.
• About how much DNA would you expect two species to share based on chance alone?
