Given four hypothetical taxa, construct a tree in which Taxon G is more closely related to Taxon L than to Taxon A, but all three of these taxa are more closely related to each other than Taxon F. The most obvious way to determine the evolutionary relationship of organisms (i.e. their phylogenetic tree) is compare morphological similarities
At this time, the concept of index of refraction should be discussed on relative terms. When a substance bends light more than another, it is said to have a higher index of refraction. Oil has a higher index of refraction than water or air.Assessment: Students' responses to key concepts and their responses to additional examples.t this time, the concept of index of refraction should be discussed on relative terms.

Refraction of Light. Refraction is the bending of a wave when it enters a medium where its speed is different. The refraction of light when it passes from a fast medium to a slow medium bends the light ray toward the normal to the boundary between the two media. The amount of bending depends on the indices of refraction of the two media and is described quantitatively by Snell's Law.
