<span>The question is asking Which level of taxonomy has the fewest organisms?- therefore we have to choose the smallest group. This is the species, for example dogs are a species. then they form a genus together with Coyotes, and they they formgom with all other animals. Finally all eukaryotes are in the domain with dogs. So the smallest group is the species - only the dogs here in this example</span>
Can I have more than 1 answer
I think its B transmit genetic information through reproduction
Hello! Based on the research I have done they are 2 different "strains" or like what you said, 2 different apples.
Answer:
The study of evolutionary relationships that includes a branching pattern showing lineages diverging is called <em>phylogenetic tree</em>
Explanation:
The phylogenetic tree is composed of,
• Lineages → These are the taxonomic groups of interest placed in the extremes of the lines called branches.
• Nodes → These are the ramification points, which are also known as divergence points. They represent the location of the most recent common ancestor.
• Root → This is the older common ancestor that all lineages share. The first one in the tree.
Two or more lineages are more related to each other if they share a recent common ancestor. This means that they all diverge from the same node.
Two or more lineages are less related to each other if they lack a recent common ancestor. This is, the node from which these lineages diverge is placed far away in the tree.
There are also different phylogenetic relationships between lineages.
• Apomorphies → Occur when the involved lineages share a trait that they inherited from their most recent common ancestor. This trait evolved for the first time in this ancestor. → This relationship is a homology.
• Plesiomorphies → occur when the involved lineages share a trait inherited from a common ancestor, but that is older concerning the present traits exhibited by other descendants of the same common ancestor. → This relationship is a homology.
• Homoplasy → Lineages share a trait that evolved independently in each group. → This relationship is an analogy.
