The study of evolutionary relationships that includes a branching pattern showing lineages diverging is called phylogenetic tree

Explanation:

The phylogenetic tree is composed of,

•Lineages → These are the taxonomic groups of interest placed in the extremes of the lines called branches.  

•Nodes → These are the ramification points, which are also known as divergence points. They represent the location of the most recent common ancestor.  

•Root → This is the older common ancestor that all lineages share. The first one in the tree.  

Two or more lineages are more related to each other if they share a recent common ancestor. This means that they all diverge from the same node.

Two or more lineages are less related to each other if they lack a recent common ancestor. This is, the node from which these lineages diverge is placed far away in the tree.  

There are also different phylogenetic relationships between lineages.  

•Apomorphies → Occur when the involved lineages share a trait that they inherited from their most recent common ancestor. This trait evolved for the first time in this ancestor. → This relationship is a homology.

•Plesiomorphies → occur when the involved lineages share a trait inherited from a common ancestor, but that is older concerning the present traits exhibited by other descendants of the same common ancestor. → This relationship is a homology.

•Homoplasy → Lineages share a trait that evolved independently in each group. → This relationship is an analogy.

foliated

[ explanation ]

foliation forms in a rock when pressure squeezes the rock together. the rock then has a design of many different color little lines. there are three types of foliated rock. the types are slate, schist, and gneiss. each type of foliated rock is different based on grain size and foliation characteristics. the lines appear when the rock has been under pressure.
