| envolved in an ancestor of one group but not of the other | derived character |
| A bioligist using cladistics constructs a benching diagram called a | cladogram |
| In evolution systematics taxonimists give varying degree of importance to | Character |
| Evolutionary relationship are displayed in a branching diagram called a | Phulogenetic Tree |
