Question

According to the Phylogenetic Species Concept...

species are groups of interbreeding populations that are reproductively isolated from other such groups.

species form monophyletic clades in gene trees, and share uniquely derived traits.

separate species can exist that look identical morphologically, if they show sufficient genetic divergence.

All of the above.

B and C only.

C.

D.

All of the above.

E.

B and C only.

Explanation / Answer

A. Phylogenetic species share traits of common unique ancestor, that have diverged from each other and are incapable of interbreeding. So they are reproductively isolated from each other.

B. Species form monophyletic clades in gene trees, that includes a group of organisms most recent common descended single ancestor. and share uniquely derived traits.

C. Separate species can exist that look identical morphologically, they also show genetic divergence.

from the above information the anser is option 'D all of the above.
