Chapter 26, Problem 2SYK
Summary Introduction
To describe: The tools that systematists use for constructing phylogenic tree.
Introduction: The phylogenetic tree, also known as phylogeny, shows the pattern of evolutionary descent of different organisms. It paves way to know about the evolutionary relationship between different species or groups of organisms based on their genetic and physical characteristics.
