47
clade definition
Each clade consists of an ancestral organism and all of its evolutionary descendants
48
how an aa sequence determines species in a clade
shared molecular heritage
49
parsimony
indicates most probable sequence of divergence
50
limitations of morphology as classification
closely relates can look different, distant can look similar
51
adaptive radiation
when a species rapidly diversifies
52
adaptive radiation example
Darwins finches
