Circled area on the phylogenetic tree

Reference no: EM133651237

Question

The circled area on the phylogenetic tree typically represents the most recent common ancestor of the species that branch off from that point. In phylogenetic trees, a node where branches diverge symbolizes a common ancestor from which the descendant species evolved. The circled area is such a node, indicating the common ancestor of species C, D, and E. Therefore, the correct answer to what is represented by the circled area on the phylogeny is "a common ancestor."
