14. Which of the following best explains the morphological species concept? a. Sexual reproduction among only similar kinds of species is likely to occur. b. Different clones with variations in its genetic composition is considered a separate species. c. Speciation genes among species caused variation in individuals. d. Mating among different breeds is impossible. e. A clear difference in appearance makes one a separate species. 15. Which of the following terms is related to cladistics. a. branching tree b. synaphomorphic characters C. primitive domain d. nested hierarchy e. paraphyly 16.
