Question
Chapter 19, Problem 3TC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
Why the genetic evidences are more powerful tool for the systematics.
Introduction:
Systematics is the scientific study of the types and diversity of organisms and relationships among them. The two types of evidences morophological (form and function) and genetic are used to establish phylogeny between organisms. But development of more rapid genetic information such as DNA-sequencing techniques has changed our view of the organization of the animal kingdom because morphological characteristics are more likely to be convergent and the patterns of inheritance of morphological characters not always clear.
