Question

Count the number of new species that form in each group beginning at 60 mya (the first three species in each group were present around 64 mya, the first time period sampled, so we don't know when those species first appear in the fossil record).

Answer 1

hello your question has some missing information attached below is the missing information

answer :

New planktonic larvae species = 10 species

New Non-planktonic larvae species = 26 species

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate for the number of new species that form in each group

From the question it can seen that 3 species were present before 60 mya in each set

hence to calculate for the number of new species that form in each group

= Total number of species - number of species present at the beginning of 60mya

Group 1 ( New planktonic larvae species )

= 13 -3 = 10 species

Group 2 ( New Non-planktonic larvae species )

= 29 - 3 = 26 species
