Title: Taxonomy Lab to Show Organism Relationships
Instructions: You will need to fill out the data table and answer a set of questions.
When your lab report is complete, post it in Submitted Assignment files.
Part 1: Using the lab animation, fill in the following data tables to help you answer the questions that follow:

Part 2: Using the completed data table, answer the following questions:
- What is common among all samples?
- What is common among organisms from samples 1, 9, and 10?
- What is common between the circulatory system of organisms from samples 5, 6, and 7, but different in organisms from sample 4?
- What is common in the respiration system of organisms from samples 2 and 4?
- What gas is delivered to the respiratory system of organisms from samples 1, 9, and 10? Why?
- Which organisms are producers?
- Which organisms are decomposers?
- Look at the surface of your hand. You will see the skin and hair made up of protein called keratin. Which organisms did humans inherit that protein from?
- Which organisms have blood?
