Imagine that a taxonomist is provided with several flashcards on which the names of different species are written. She would likely organize these flashcards to construct a phylogenetic tree. To do this, would she pay attention to which species belong to which genus or class?

A) yes
B) no

Respuesta :

Answer: A) yes

Explanation:

Phylogenetic trees forms as a result of speciation. These are useful in determining the relationship between the hierarchical groups depending upon the common ancestry. The genus and species are the two taxonomic groups in the biological classification. The species can be related to the genus or related species through common ancestral relationships. A genus can be related to the closely-related group of several species.
