Answer: Option C. consists of ancestor species and all of its descendants groups.
Explanation:
Monophyletic clade refers to a group composed of a collection of organisms, including the most recent common ancestor of all those organisms and all the descendants of that most recent common ancestor.
A monophyletic clade is also called a taxon. By classifying organisms based on their biological diversity and evolutionary history, we can easily know, how different organisms, both past and present, are related to one another. Examples of monophyletic groups include: Mammals, birds, angiosperms, and insects.
