Name the area on a cladogram that represents the point from which the species split from the ancestor.
1 answer:
Answer: Node
Explanation:
Cladograms are a graphical representation of the evolutionary relationship between organisms. These are usually shown as branches from a central point, which represents a common ancestor. In rooted cladograms, the branches are shown relative to the time elapsed since evolving from a common ancestor joined at the node, or point of divergence.
Evolution typically occurs after accumulating mutation, and natural selection of beneficial traits that confer greater chances for survival.

The phase during which sister chromatids aggregate along the equator of the cell is called the metaphase.
The image shows the process of cell division through mitosis. The mother cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells in mitosis. There are four main phases in the mitosis process. They are: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. In the metaphase, the highly condensed sister chromatids line up along the equator of the cell by binding to the microtubles that form the skeleton of the cell. These kinetochores line up the chromatids at the equator to initiate their separation.
