Here are the answers to your questions based on your provided information:

Question 1: Which group of plants evolved after cone-bearing plants?

  • a flowering plants

Question 2: Which two species can Katherine conclude are the MOST closely related?

  • a spikemosses and clubmosses

Question 3: According to the diagram, which two groups of organisms are most closely related?

  • a Reptiles and Birds

Question 4: What table of information did the student use to create the model?

  • This question appears to reference specific dataset identifiers that I do not have access to. I cannot answer this question without more context on what each identifier correlates with.

Question 5: Which of the following statements correctly explain the reason for the locations of a pair of organisms in this diagram? Select all that apply.

  • a Halophiles and ciliates have similar DNA structures.
  • c Thermoproteus and pyrodictium have similar DNA structures.
  • e Entamoeba and halophiles have different DNA structures.

Note: For Question 4, you'll need to choose the option that corresponds to the model you've created based on the provided information in your course or notes.
