Which system of biological classification is also called the phylogenetic system?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Phylogenetic system

The correct answer is B, the phylogenetic system. The word phylogenetic refers to the evolutionary history and relationships of organisms. A phylogenetic classification groups organisms according to their common ancestry and the evolutionary changes that connect them. Option A, the artificial system, uses a small number of easily observed characters and may group unrelated organisms together; it does not primarily show evolutionary history. Option C, the natural system, uses many natural characteristics and often gives a more meaningful grouping, but it is not simply another name for the phylogenetic system. Option D is not a recognised general system of biological classification. Memory cue: phylogeny means evolutionary relationship or family history.
