Question

choose the number location in the tree for your organism, coral 2 4 5 6 9 8 eukaryotic cell prokaryotic cell multicellular cellulose chloroplasts vertebral column four limbs, digits amniotic egg hair overlapping scales feathers

Explanation:

Step1: Identify coral characteristics

Coral is multicellular, eukaryotic. It does not have features like a vertebral - column, four limbs, digits, feathers, overlapping scales, hair or amniotic eggs.

Step2: Locate on the tree

Starting from the base, coral being eukaryotic and multicellular, it should be on the branch that diverges after the "eukaryotic cell" and "multicellular" nodes. Looking at the tree, the number 5 is in the correct position for an organism with these basic characteristics and lacking the more advanced vertebrate - specific traits.

Answer:

5
