What is phylogeny?

Evolutionary history of a species

True or false: Animals with backbones are more evolutionarily successful than organisms without backbones. False. The fact that there is more diversity among invertebrates indicates they are more successful than vertebrates. False. This adaptation reduces flexibility and hinders a vertebrate's success in their environment. False. The energy required to produce this structure takes away from vertebrate's ability to reproduce. False. Each species exhibits adaptations that best suit their environment. True. This adaptation enables vertebrates to be more successful in their environment.
