What assumption is made when constructing a cladogram?
question 25 options:
the fewer derived characteristics shared by groups, the more recently the groups share a common ancestor
the more derived characteristics shared by groups, the more recently the groups share a common ancestor
the fewer ancestral characteristics shared by groups, the more recently the groups share a common ancestor
the more ancestral characteristics shared by groups, the more recently the groups share a common ancestor

D. The more ancestral characteristics shared by groups, the more recently the groups share a common ancestor.

Explanation - Cladogram is the representation of organisms that shows their ancestory. Phylogenetic or evolutionary relationship between the organisms are calculated and drawn using lines and nodes. Nodes represents the common or same ancestor between the species under consideration.

The derived characters in organism is also taken into consideration while mapping the cladogram. Cladogram represents that the species that had more ancestral characteristics in common are likely to have a common ancestor. We can study and analyze as to how the evolution have occurred.

the relative atomic mass of an element is the mass of one atom of that element, relative to 1/12th of the mass of a  1212c atom. to convert to an absolute mass in kg, it is necessary to multiply by  1.661×10−271.661×10−27.

the relative atomic mass is roughly equal to the number of neutrons, plus the number of protons, in the nucleus of the atom.

for elements with more than one stable isotope (different types of nucleus with different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons), the quoted mass is usually the average mass, weighted by the relative abundance of the different isotopes.

the cells uses some of the atoms of the glucose molecules to atp molecules. the atoms of the glucose molecules will then be converted into energy which will be eventually stored in atp. the energy produced which are stored in atp are coming from the glucose’s chemical bonds.
