Based on the character matrix, which is most likely an ancestral trait for the group of species?
Explain why plants being polyploid makes using the phylogenetic species concept difficult to use. Be sure to explain how the phylogenetic species concept attempts to classify organisms into distinct species.
How can scientists still use the phylogenetic species concept to classify land plants, despite the majority being polyploid? (What do they do to get around this problem?)
i did it and C is alrdy wrong
