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.
Capture-mark-recapture method is a technique commonly used to measure the size of a population. When using this technique, a number of individuals in a certain natural population are marked, returned to that population, and some of them are eventually recaptured as a basis for estimating the size of the population at the period of marking and release.
Advantages of the capture-mark-recapture method include; it is relatively costly, reliable, and its accuracy does not depend on the evaluation of the amount of habitat.
Disadvantages of the capture-mark-recapture method include; its accuracy depend on capturing a large proportion of the population, and marking of animals can have a dramatic effect on the animals.
