What is phylogenetic constraint?
Phylogenetic Constraint is like a basic body plan. It can be modified (what evolution does) but it can't be fully changed. Vestigial features (things like the human appendix which is a remnant of our ancestors, but is no longer used) provide evidence of common ancestry and phylogenetic constraint. :)
Why do phylogenetic trees provide strong evidence of evolution?
With the nested hierarchy of phylogenetic trees in front of you, showing in general relief the biochemical, physiological, behavioral relatedness extended from the forked nodes, and going along through time one sees evolution in action. Change over time.

What is a diagram that reflects such hypothesis of evolutionary relationships that has a branching pattern?
Phylogenetic tree
Why is a human a rabbit and a zebra evidence of evolution?
In themselves, they are not. But placed in the larger context of the animal kingdom, it becomes immediately apparent that they adhere to the nested hierarchies of biology on all levels, and that the phylogenetic trees in which they are found are strongly convergent independent of the trait assayed.
How do you determine if a species is extinct on a phylogenetic tree?
Evolution is a process where populations are altered over time and may split into branches, hybridize, or become extinct. The evolutionary branching process may be depicted as a phylogenetic tree, the placement on this tree determines extinction.
What is another name for phylogenetic tree?
Another name for a phylogenetic tree is a "cladogram." Cladograms illustrate the evolutionary relationships among species based on shared characteristics and common ancestry. They are commonly used in evolutionary biology to depict the branching patterns of evolution.
When was Museum of Human Evolution created?
Museum of Human Evolution was created in 2010.
What is phylogenetic according to Sigmund Freud?
Phylogenetic
What profession can you get into that involves human evolution?
Biological anthropology is the branch of science that studies human evolution.
What tool is used to root a phylogenetic tree?
A tool called a phylogenetic analysis software is used to root a phylogenetic tree.
How does a phylogenetic tree work to illustrate the evolutionary relationships between different species?
A phylogenetic tree shows how different species are related through evolution. It uses branches to represent common ancestors and shows how species have diverged over time. The closer the branches, the more closely related the species are.
