Question
question 7 (2.5 points) a cladogram can be viewed as \sets within sets\ of derived traits. which features distinguish the clade containing mice and humans from the other clades in this cladogram? multicellular with legs multicellular with hair multicellular with a backbone multicellular multicellular with a backbone, legs and hair
Mice and humans are mammals. Mammals are multicellular, have a backbone (vertebrate), legs (limbs for movement), and hair (a key mammalian characteristic). The other options either lack one or more of these defining traits for the clade containing mice and humans. For example, "multicellular with legs" doesn't account for hair and backbone as unique to this clade compared to all others in a general cladogram context. "Multicellular with hair" misses the backbone and legs aspects. "Multicellular with a backbone" lacks hair and legs details. "Multicellular" is too broad as many organisms are multicellular.
