Figure 1: An organismal tree

Introduction:

A phylogenetic tree is the diagrammatic representation of evolutionary relationships among organisms. It can be drawn in various styles. All the species including A, B, C, and D have a common origin as per their representation in the phylogenetic tree. Later on, each species evolved in some way or the other. Species B and C are more closely related to each other in comparison to other species.
