Phylogentic+Tree

Phylogenetic Tree: All 7 species consist of the same gene (MC1R). The neighbor joining data below is an unrooted tree. It show that both chicken and zebrafish give rise to other species. While the maximum parsimony is considered a root tree, which all other species are derived from the chicken. On the Neighbor Joining data, human and chimpanzee are determined to be closely related to one another than compared to cow and dog. The chicken and the zebrafish are more closely related to each other but are distantly related when compared to the chimpanzee, human, cows and dog. On the Maximum parsimony diagram, both human and chimpanzee are also closely related to each other. While The mouse, dog, cow, zebrafish, and chicken were all referred to as the next closely related one another.
