How many different clades of two or more species are possible for species A-H shown in Figure 10.6A
Figure 10.6 Relationships between phylogeny and taxonomic groups illustrated for a hypothetical phylogeny of eight species (A through H). A, Monophyly -a monophyletic group contains the most recent common ancestor of all members of the group and all of its descendants. B, Paraphyly -a paraphyletic group contains the most recent common ancestor of all members of the group and some but not all of its descendants. C, Polyphyly -a polyphyletic group does not contain the most recent common ancestor of all members of the group, thereby requiring that the group have at least two separate phylogenetic origins.
