Principle of Parsimony
the simplest explanation of data is the most accurate
the tree with the fewest branches= fewest number of evolutionary innovations
4
New cards
Morphological Data
data comes from previous information
morphological characteristics can be unreliable for constructing phylogenies
5
New cards

structures may look similar, but arose independently
6
New cards
Homologous structures
structures may look different but arose due to a common ancestor
