Levels of Approach in Biology
• How? versus Why? Questions and Explanations
• Proximate and Ultimate Factors
• Mechanistic versus Strategic Perspectives
• Short-term versus long-term considerations
• Why do birds fly south in the autumn?
• Shorter day length triggers pituitary secretions that enhance Wanderlust.
• Winter is predictable and reduces survival. Birds that tended to move south escaped its icy clutches and survived to reproduce and left more genes in the population gene pool.

• Phylum Arthropoda
• Class Insecta
• Order Diptera
• FamilyDrosophilidae
• Genus Drosophila
• Species melanogaster
• Latin binomials
• Chordata
• Mammalia
• Primates
• “Hominidae” (Pongidae)
• Homo
• sapiens (the “sap”)

Phylogenetics Phylogenetic Systematics = cladistics
Importance of shared derived characteristics
Monophyletic groups (Polyphyletic, Paraphyletic)
Sister groups, outgroups
Rooting phylogenetic trees
Identify ancestral states — polarize character state changes
