Given four hypothetical taxa, construct a tree in which Taxon G is more closely related to Taxon L than to Taxon A, but all three of these taxa are more closely related to each other than Taxon F. The most obvious way to determine the evolutionary relationship of organisms (i.e. their phylogenetic tree) is compare morphological similarities
At this time, the concept of index of refraction should be discussed on relative terms. When a substance bends light more than another, it is said to have a higher index of refraction. Oil has a higher index of refraction than water or air.Assessment: Students' responses to key concepts and their responses to additional examples.t this time, the concept of index of refraction should be discussed on relative terms. When a substance bends light more than another, it is said to have a higher index of refraction. Oil has a higher index of refraction than water or air.
The light is therefore reflected. The boundary between the media does not have to be abrupt for reflection or refraction to occur. On a hot day, the air over the surface of an asphalt road is warmer than the air above it. Because light travels at different speeds in these two regions, we see an image that shimmers because its light waves are refracted.
