Changes in Hox Gene Expression Control
Body Segment Specialization
Based on relatively simple changes in the
expression patterns of ____________
 Hox genes designated _____
 Shifts in patterns of gene expression in the
embryo along the _____________________
govern transition from one type of vertebra to
another and short or long necks

Molecular views of animal diversity
Now using new molecular techniques to
classify animals by comparing similarities
in the ____ and the ______________ of
animals, especially sequences of
nucleotides in the gene that encodes RNA
of the small ribosomal subunit (SSU rRNA)

4.
The clade called ______________________, meaning
all animals came from a single common ancestor.
At the earliest stages of evolution, molecular phylogeny
supports the traditional view of the split between
__________________________________.
There is also agreement about an early split between
__________________, with most animal phyla
belonging to the Bilateria.
Molecular phylogeny also agrees that the echinoderms
and chordates belong to a clade called the
____________________.

2 key differences between
traditional and molecular phylogeny
