Difference between Mollusca and Monophyly

Mollusca vs. Monophyly

Mollusca is a large phylum of invertebrate animals whose members are known as molluscs or mollusksThe formerly dominant spelling mollusk is still used in the U.S. — see the reasons given in Gary Rosenberg's. In cladistics, a monophyletic group, or clade, is a group of organisms that consists of all the descendants of a common ancestor.

Similarities between Mollusca and Monophyly

Mollusca and Monophyly have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Phylogenetic tree, Polyphyly, Synapomorphy and apomorphy, Taxonomy (biology).

Phylogenetic tree

A phylogenetic tree or evolutionary tree is a branching diagram or "tree" showing the evolutionary relationships among various biological species or other entities—their phylogeny—based upon similarities and differences in their physical or genetic characteristics.

Polyphyly

A polyphyletic group is a set of organisms, or other evolving elements, that have been grouped together but do not share an immediate common ancestor.

Synapomorphy and apomorphy

In phylogenetics, apomorphy and synapomorphy refer to derived characters of a clade – characters or traits that are derived from ancestral characters over evolutionary history.
