a) to see if the lily and the orchids show all the same shared derived characters (synapomorphies)

b) to demonstrate likely homoplasies

c) to see if the lily is a cryptic orchid species

d) to serve as an outgroup

The answer is D- To serve as an Outgroup

A phylogenetic tree is also called an evolutionary tree and it shows the evolutionary relationships that exists among organisms called taxa based on their physical or genetic similarities and differences. The Phylogenetic tree consists of ingroup and outgroup. The ingroup consists of a group of closely related organisms or taxon while the outgroup represents a more distantly related group of organisms or taxon but as close as possible to the  ingroup.

The Lily represents the outgroup in the phylogenetic tree while the Orchid are the ingroup. This is because the Lily is distantly related to the orchid.

What do you think would happen if the federal government could regulate trade within a<br> state?
Georgia [21]

If the Federal Government were able to regulate commerce within a state, there would possibly be a <u>clash of interests</u>.

<h3>Trade within a State</h3>

The United States was formed in such a way that there was an internal state government and a federal government that could implement general policies of common application.

Since the federal government has a different view of trade than the state does, an inclusion of the federal government would cause a <u>clash of interests</u> due to the different views among them.
