Question

Which of the following best compares Linnaean taxonomy with Cladistics?
see comments

Answer 1

Cladistics is impractical when trying to classify millions of species, whereas the Linnaean taxonomic system allows for multiple possibilities for organization and no limits to the size of the hierarchy.

Linnaean taxonomy organizes living things based on genetic traits and evolutionary history, whereas Cladistics uses a fixed number of clades, or branches, by which organisms are classified.

Linnaean taxonomy uses obvious physical similarities to group organisms into an evolutionary framework, whereas Cladistics does not take physical traits into account.

Cladistics provides possible evolutionary explanation of physical traits in organisms, whereas Linnaean taxonomy groups organisms based on physical traits though they may not be related.

Answer 2

Did you answer your own question?

Answer 3

Ah no of course not :P

Answer 4

Those are the choices i was given its a pretest but if i anwser most of them right i might have less work sooooo yea

Answer 5

lol Let's see

Answer 6

In Linnean taxonomy, species are grouped according to their appearances, (which can be deceiving, but they had no proper understanding of the role of genes at that time; it came much later, evolving slowly, after many debates, studies, and experiments) but in cladistics, they are grouped according to the relative closeness of their genetic structure.

Answer 7

Btw this is not my statement and I do not agree with it :P

Answer 8

Hope this is helpful!

Answer 9

Honestly this is all confusing i havent even read the chapter yet it's just a pretest
