Evolutionary systematics and cladistics

Reference no: EM13512811

Explain why is it not surprising that some species can interbreed with one another. Then define paleospecies. Would we see the dog and the wolf as distinct paleospecies?

Consider the two approaches to classifying and interpreting lifeforms: evolutionary systematics and cladistics. Define each and then select a classmate's explanation as to why two distinct species can interbreed (Essay 1) and decide which if either or both is best suited to take into account such a relationship. Explain your answer.
