Determine which character states are ancestral and which are derived. This is an external group that is used to make a phylogenetic analysis that is the set of evolutionary of species and gender, showing their origin and origin. Applied as a method of analysis and reconstruction of information on species classifications. For this it is necessary to determine the ancestral state and its derivatives.
