A phylogenetic tree:

A. classifies all plant species based on their habitats.

B. diagrams the evolutionary history of a particular group of organisms.

C. is based on binomial nomenclature.

D. only catalogues fossil plants.

E. only uses genome sequencing data

B. diagrams the evolutionary history of a particular group of organisms.

Explanation:

Phylogenetic trees represent hypotheses about the evolutionary relationships between a group of organisms.

A phylogenetic tree with the morphological (body shape), biochemical, behavioral or molecular characteristics of species or other groups can be constructed.

When building a tree, we organize the species into nested groups based on shared derived characters (characteristics different from those of the group's ancestor).

Gene or protein sequences can be compared between species and used to build phylogenetic trees. Nearby species usually have few differences in their sequences, while less related ones tend to have more.
