|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| show | The evolutionary history of a species or group of species.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A discipline focused on classifying organisms and determining their evolutionary relationships.
🗑
|
||||
| Binomial | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | First part of the scientific name. To which the species belongs
🗑
|
||||
| show | Second part of the scientific name. Unique for each species within the genus.

|
||||
| show | The named taxonomic unit at any level of the hierarchy.
🗑
|
||||
| Phylogenetic Tree | show 🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
| Polytomy | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | Analogous structures that arose independently
🗑
|
||||
| show | The discipline that uses DNA and other molecular data to determine evolutionary relationships.

|
||||
| Paraphyletic | show 🗑
|
||||
| Polyphyletic | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A character, shared by members of a particular clade, that originated in an ancestor that is not a member of that clade.
🗑
|
||||
| Shared Derived Character | show 🗑
|
||||
| Outgroup | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | A species or group of species whose evolutionary relationships we seek to determine.
🗑
|
||||
| show | A principle that states that when considering multiple explanations for an observation, one should first investigate the simplest explanation that is consistent with the facts.
🗑
|
||||
| show | As applied to systematics, a principle that states that when considering multiple phylogenetic hypotheses, one should take into account the hypothesis that reflects the most likely sequence of evolutionary events.
🗑
|
||||
| show | An approach in which features shared by two groups of organisms are predicted to be present in their common ancestor and all of its descendants.
🗑
|
||||
| show | Homologous genes that are found in different species because of speciation.
🗑
|
||||
| show | Homologous genes that are found in the same genome as a result of gene duplication.
🗑

| Sister Taxa | show 🗑
|
||||
| show | When a branch point within the tree represents the last common ancestor of all taxa in the tree.
🗑
