Use this branching diagram to answer the questions. IF U DONT KNOW THE ANSWER THEN DONT PUT AN ANSWER. Look at the possible derived shared characteristics, shown in the text box. Think about where these should be placed along the branching tree diagram. From the text box, select a shared derived characteristic that frogs and pigeons have. Explain why you think frogs and pigeons share this characteristic.

HOW ARE FROGS AND PIGEONS RELATED?:

Explanation:

The common characters shared by frogs and pigeons are:

presence of jaws

four limbs  

The frogs and pigeons share these characteristics because they both are derived or evolved from a common ancestor.

During the course of evolution, the jaws are evolved in beaks in birds or pigeon as beak is light-weight in comparison to jaws.

Similarly, the forelimbs get covered with feathers to become wings.
