A group of organisms branches off in a cladogram when they share a common ancestor that is different from other groups on the cladogram. This branching represents the point at which their evolutionary paths diverged.

What is meant by cladogram in information visualization?

A cladogram is a diagram used in cladistics which shows relations among organisms. A cladogram is not however an evolutionary tree because it does not show how ancestors are related to descendants or how much they have changed; many evolutionary trees can be inferred from a single cladogram. A cladogram uses lines that branch off in different directions ending at groups of organisms. There are many shapes of cladograms but they all have lines that branch off from other lines. The lines can be traced back to where they branch off. These branching off points represent a hypothetical ancestor (not an actual entity) which would have the combined traits of the lines above it. This hypothetical ancestor might then provide clues about what to look for in an actual evolutionary ancestor. Although traditionally such cladograms were generated largely on the basis of morphological characters, DNA and RNA sequencing data and computational phylogenetics are now very commonly used in the generation of cladograms.

What is the Akita Inu's cladogram?

The Akita Inu is classified in the Canidae family within the Carnivora order. Its cladogram would show its evolutionary relationships with other canids, such as wolves, foxes, and other dog breeds. It would branch off from a common ancestor and display how the Akita Inu has evolved and diversified over time within the Canidae family.

What does it mean to be splintered off from something?

The term splintered means to break off. When wood breaks, it often forms splinters. If it is cut, it doesn't. Perhaps you have tried to break a branch or stick and it splintered instead of breaking cleanly. This can be used in another way: one group of people may break away from a larger group and people will say that the second group has splintered off.


How do mass extinctions appear to be related to the appearance of new major groups of organisms?

I was thinking the same thing. i think that its because when one group goes extinct the new major group thrives because somehow the now extinct group died off.
