Respuesta :

- - b. The goal of a cladogram is to show relationships and evolutionary descent between species.

This is your answer because it best describes a cladogram 

Correct answer: B). The goal of a cladogram is to show relationships and evolutionary descent between species.

A cladogram is a diagram that is used to find out the hypothetical relationship between the group of animals.

It is used by the scientist for the study of the phylogenetic relationship among the organisms, it enables the scientist to find out how the organism is related and ancestor of the closely related organisms

The Cladogram is also called as the phylogeny or the trees, which group organism based on their shared characteristics.
