showing the speciation of specimens over time. The rest of the report will depend on the classification you create in this tree, so make sure you have good reasons for your placements. You may make your classification based on morphology (the physical form of the specimens), internal structure, development, or any other basis, as long as you can justify it scientifically. A cladogram, including a matrix that shows how characteristics were arranged to separate one group of specimens from the next. A written explanation of your tree, containing the following parts: a) The particular environments that the species are adapted to, and the adaptations
Please complete the questions on picture #1 (based on cladogram and phylogenetic tree on picture #2)
Cladistics
The evolutionary relationship of organism is referred to as phylogeny.
some bio logistic feel that classification should be based on phylogeny and it particular on the point at which different group have diverged from each other.
the phylogentic principle classifies species according to how recently they share a common ancestor.
two species that share a more recent common ancestor will be put in a group a lower taxonomic rank than two species sharing a more distant common ancestor.
The branch of systematics concerned with inferring phylogeny is termed as Cladistics.
cladistic relationship refers to the paths of the ancestral lineages and therefore describes the sequence of branching of the ancestral lines.
Biologists distinguish two different types of character; 1 Homoplasy 2 . Homology
