(a) Give the names of the two organisms on this tree that are most closely related. and
(1 mark) (b) Describe why the mouse and the rat became different during evolution.The ancestor of these organisms evolved in two different
and so needed to in two different ways.

2 Not all humans are the same size. This is an example of variation. Describe one reason why populations show variation.

Models of evolutionary relationships
EVOLUTIONARY TREES show relationships
between organisms.
This tree shows that cows and whales have
more similar characteristics than cows and
humans, for example. This means that cows
and whales evolved more recently from the
same ancestor than cows and humans.
The diagram shows the forelimb of two
mammals. Explain how this evidence
supports the idea that these mammals
evolved from the same ancestor. (2 marks)
The bones in each limb are arranged in
the same way. This suggests that they
evolved from the same ancestor with
this bone arrangement.
Evidence for the evolution of organisms
comes from:• looking at how fossils changed
over time• comparing the characteristics of
living organisms, including their DNA.
This evidence suggests that all living
species have evolved from simple life
forms that fi rst developed over 3
million years ago.

Classification
Organisms are CLASSIFIED as plant,
animal or microorganism using the
similarities and differences in their
characteristics.
Classi� cation can show how organisms
are related by evolution or by how
they live (ecological relationship).

1 Look at the evolutionary tree above.
(a) Which of these pairs of animals shares the most recent common
ancestor: cow/pig, cow/hedgehog? Explain your answer. (2 marks)
(b) Explain why the shape of the tree can be interpreted as how evolution
of these species occurred. (3 marks)
2 Birds and bats share an ecological relationship as they can � y, but they are
not classi� ed together. (Bats are classi� ed as mammals.) Explain why. (2 marks)
Different kinds of evolutionary tree are
based on different evidence and so look
different. You need to be able to interpret
evolutionary trees.
