Identify whether the described process or activity is alpha, beta, or gamma taxonomy. 1. A field taxonomist discovers a new species of flowering plant. 2. A previously identified animal was reclassified in another taxon. 3. A group of taxonomists study the evolutionary relationships of different groups of birds found in different tropical forests. 4. Unidentified herbarium specimens were named and described by an expert. 5. New evidences support the evolution of fungi from the aquatic environment.

Health professionals refer to fungal skin diseases as "“tineas" and name them according to the region affected. Fungal skin diseases are persistent, in part, because fungi can penetrate deeper layers of skin than can ointments and creams. There are fewer antifungal drugs than ones, and antifungals often have more severe side effects. Reflect on the evolutionary relationships among bacteria, fungi, and humans. 1. List 5 different "Tineas" to show the connection between the name and the body parts affected from them. 2. Are fungi unicellular or multicellular organism? 3. Why it is harder to fight fungi than bacteria? 4. Why antifungals have more severe side effects?
