1st journal entry

I studied the Eastern Gray Squirrel on OneZoom. This species's phylogeny is bilaterally symmetrical animals, deuterostomes, jawed vertebrates, tetrapods, amniotes, and rodents. Its scientific name is Sciurus carolinensis and this is an invasive species, its conservation status is of least concern.
As for the adaptation that my 10 species have in common, there is none because I did not only observe one category of species and each large group of organisms has different ways to adapt to its changing environment. However, the butternut hickory observed adapted to the surrounding trees by only having high branches, exposing all the leaves to sunlight to go through photosynthesis.
