Determine which organism your chosen organism be most closely related to using a phylogenetic tree. ·         Identify the structures and functions of the main organs found in your selected organism. ·         Explain how the organism has evolved physiologically to become suited to its environment. ·         Explain how things would change if the organism were to be transplanted to a significantly different environment: ·         Would their organ system still be as efficient?  Why or why not? ·         Would the organism survive in this new environment?  Why or why not?
