The kingdom Protista is not considered a true clade because it is a paraphyletic group, meaning it does not include all descendants of a common ancestor. This group has been reclassified into multiple kingdoms based on evolutionary relationships.
How do you identify clades?
Monophyletic groups in the tree of life. Must be an ancestor and all of its descendants (monophyletic).
Identify a major source of evidence used by scientists who advocate the adoption of the three-domain system for classifying living things?
Researchers have performed comparative genomic analysis of the two main prokaryotic groups and found them more different from each other, and from eukaryotes, than previously thought. For evolutionary classification to be valid, a clade must be monophyletic, that is, contain only the descendants of one common ancestor. Protists are not monophyletic, they are paraphyletic. The result is the advocation of the use of a three-domain system.
