Incomplete lineage sorting happens when the ancestral species has loci with a great variety of allelic variations. In the case of human evolution, what does incomplete lineage sorting cause? O It causes that phylogenies using nuclear genes have less support than phylogenies using mitochondrial genes O It causes that primates can hybridize among species O It causes that phylogenies show that humans are more closely related to gorillas than to chimpanzees (and bonobos) O It causes that phylogenies showing chimpanzees (and bonobos) more closely related to humans are less prone to error

Evolutionary lineages

An evolutionary lineage is a series of populations of organisms that descend from a common ancestor. Each species in the lineage is the direct consequence of evolutionary change from a common ancestor. A phylogenetic tree is generally used to display lineages visually. Lineages are components of the phylogenetic tree of life. Molecular systematics procedures are widely used to predict lineages.
