B C D E GH I5 Using evidence from the phylogenetic tree determine which species would be MOST closely related to the species on branch C? OA The species on Branches F, G, H, and I are all equally related to the species on branch C because they all split from a common ancestor at the same time which is illustrated by having nodes 2 and 7 at the same height. O B. The species on Branch A & B are both most closely related to the species on branch C because they share the most most recent common ancestor at node 2.
