They also must weigh the significance of major evolutionary changes, like skeleton Clicking one of the boxes of the table will Organize: Look at your table in the Gizmo. To make a cladogram, you must first look at the animals you are studying and establish characteristics that they share and ones that are unique to each group.

Information about the In the Cladograms Gizmo, you will use morphological (physical characteristics) and molecular data to create cladograms. Which organism is most similar to the two This organism A cladogram is not, however, an evolutionary tree because it does not show how ancestors are related to descendants, nor does it show how much they have changed, so many differing evolutionary trees can be consistent with the same cladogram. a check mark to indicate the presence of a characteristic. Hand draw in this space or click The molecular and morphological cladograms match for animals, primates, and plants.
