Which of the following statements about the cladogram of animals is true?
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer: The correct option is c. Segmentation evolved more than once in different branches of the cladogram.

Phylogenetic studies help to identify and understand evolutionary relationship between different life forms. It uses a diagram called as Cladogram to represent the branching of the evolutionary relationships. In cladogram studies each branching point tells a fundamental character of the evolutionary significance. Cladogenesis separates the gene pool by splitting into two or more than two separate pools each of which gives rise to one or more new species. Segmentation implies repeated parts and many animals consist of such repeated parts. Therefore, segmentation appears more than once in different cladogram branches.

As here a biologist hypothesized that the sound produced by frog is mating calls than the next step of the biologist would be to make a prediction about response of that mating call by female frogs. This is called hypothesis prediction method.

Therefore the right answer is- biologist will make a prediction.
