The phylogeny in this figure shows the evolution of visual opsins in tetrapods. Each colored
triangle represents a different opsin. Which of the following accurately describes the opsins in
these species? The phylogeny in this figure shows the evolution of visual opsins in tetrapods.
Each colored triangle represents a different opsin. Which of the following accurately describes
the opsins in these species? A AAA AAAA A A AA AAA AAA Squamate reptiles New World
A opsin gain A opsin loss Tetrapod Click to view larger im O The green opsin is a
synapomorphy in rodents and New World primates, and the light blue opsin is a
symplesiomorphy in baboons and humans. O b. The light blue opsin is a synapomorphy in
squamate reptiles and birds, and the green opsin is an ancestral trait. O c The purple opsl in is an
analogous trait, and the green opsin is a homologous trait. O d The green opsin is a
synapomorphy in baboons and humans, and the light blue opsin is symplesiomorphy in squamate
reptiles and birds.
Solution
synapomorphy means a character that is present in an ancestral species and then it is shared by
one or more descendants, symplesiomorphy means that it is a shared primitive trait.
since we can see that the green opsin is first present in the ancestor the tetrapod and then gets
transferred to only baboons and humans it is derived, also we see that light blue opsin is
transferred to the reptiles and the birds from the tetrapod ancestor.
therefore the correct option should be:
the green opsin is a synapomorphy in baboons and humans, and the light blue opsin is
symplesiomorphy in squamate reptiles and birds.
