Match the organism with its place on the cladogram
(Figure 11.7). Explain the reasoning behind your placement.

D=Human

C=Chimpanzee

B=Mouse

A=Snake

Explanation:

Snakes do not have fingers/hands therefore they don't have anything in common with the other organisms besides from being alive.

Next is the mouse because they have hands but have a tail and are from a different species/group than humans and chimpanzees.

Next is chimpanzees because they are in the same class as humans but humans are more advanced.

it provides an alternative energy pathway for the reaction to proceed.

a catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but is not consumed during the course of the reaction.

catalysts increase the rate of reaction without being used up. they do this by lowering the activation energy needed. with a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases. different reactions need different catalysts.

a catalyst works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.
