Why is the description of synapomorphies important in the work of systematics?
Synapomorphies are important in systematics because they are shared derived characteristics that help scientists infer evolutionary relationships among organisms. By identifying synapomorphies, researchers can determine which species share a common ancestor and group them accordingly in a phylogenetic tree. This information is crucial for understanding the evolutionary history and patterns of biodiversity.

What are invertabrates divided into?
Invertabrates are not divided; if they were, they'd die.
Cladograms are constructed using what?
