Definition
The evolutionary history and development of a species or trait, often represented as a branching tree diagram showing relationships between different groups. It traces how organisms are related through common ancestors.
Etymology
From Greek 'phylon' (tribe, race) and 'genesis' (origin, creation). German biologist Ernst Haeckel coined the term in 1866 as part of his work on evolutionary relationships, introducing the famous phrase 'ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny.'
Kelly Says
DNA has revolutionized phylogeny by revealing that some animals that look very similar are actually distant relatives, while others that look completely different are close cousins! For example, genetic analysis showed that hippos are more closely related to whales than to pigs.
