Basal eudicots refer to a group of flowering plants that represent some of the earliest diverging lineages within the eudicot clade. This group includes families such as Ranunculaceae (buttercup family) and Nymphaeaceae (water lilies), which exhibit diverse morphological traits. Basal eudicots are characterized by features like distinct floral structures and unique leaf forms, distinguishing them from more derived eudicots. Their evolutionary significance lies in providing insights into the early diversification and characteristics of eudicot plants.
Euglena belongs to the clade Euglenozoa phylogenetically. This clade includes single-celled organisms with a flagellum and is part of the Excavata supergroup in the domain Eukarya.
Characteristics of Mammalia: 1) Mammalia (most of them ) are viviparous i.e., lay young babies . 2) Mammalia have mammary gland for production of milk. 3) Body of Mammalia are covered with hairs. 4) They have teeth. 5) They have cutaneous glands.
Variation within a clade increases the likelihood that at least some individuals will have traits that are advantageous in the face of environmental change. This genetic diversity allows for some members of the clade to survive and reproduce, passing on their beneficial traits. As a result, clades with greater variation are more likely to adapt and survive in changing environments.
A basal dicot is a dicotyledon which is not part of the monocots.
In the context of palaeontology, calling a fossil a 'transitional form' means that it's morphologically intermediate between a basal clade and a specific derived clade. Meaning that the shapes of its bones are such as would be expected from a descendant of the basal clade that is also ancestral to the derived clade.
Molusca and arthropda are phyla; plantae (metaphyta) is a kingdom; mammalia is a class (or clade).
All four-limbed animals belong to the clade of Tetrapoda. The clade of Tetrapoda is defined as the first basal four-limbed animals and all their descendants, extant and extinct. The clade immediately superior (ancestral) to that is the clade of Teleostomi, which contains all jawed vertebrates, including the tetrapods, bony fish, and the extinct lineage of acanthodian fish.

Scientific classification of the bobcat: Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Clade: Synapsida Class: Mammalia Order: Carnivora Family: Felidae Subfamily: Felinae Genus: Lynx Species: L. rufus Binomial name: Lynx rufus
On a cladogram, rabbits and primates are separated from crocodiles primarily by their evolutionary lineage and key shared characteristics. Rabbits and primates belong to the clade Amniota, specifically within the clade Mammalia, which is characterized by traits such as warm-bloodedness, fur or hair, and live birth. In contrast, crocodiles are part of the clade Archosauria, which includes reptiles and birds, and are cold-blooded with distinct reptilian features. This separation reflects divergent evolutionary paths, with rabbits and primates evolving adaptations suited to different ecological niches compared to crocodiles.
The scientific classification of sampaguita is: Kingdom: Plantae Clade: Tracheophytes Clade: Angiosperms Clade: Eudicots Clade: Asterids Order: Gentianales Family: Rubiaceae Genus: Jasminum Species: Jasminum sambac
No, although modern reptiles and dinosaurs do share common ancestors that lived in the distant past (likely the Carboniferous epoch). Birds, however, evolved from dinosaurs in the Jurassic epoch.

The two orders most distantly related to Rodentia are Chiroptera (bats) and Carnivora (carnivorous mammals like dogs and cats). These orders belong to different clades within the class Mammalia, with Chiroptera being part of the clade Laurasiatheria and Carnivora also falling under Laurasiatheria, while Rodentia is part of the clade Glires. This evolutionary separation indicates significant divergence in their lineage compared to rodents.
