conclusion
now that you have classified the organisms on planet fabula, answer the following questions:
1. how many different species are there?
2. how many different genus groups are there? list them.
3. do you think all of these creatures would belong in the same kingdom? why or why not?
4. explain in your own words the order in which the creature's traits may have evolved, starting from the first likely trait. (hint: which trait is most common across the creatures? )
