Scientists estimate that there are more than 20,000 species of ants. The species range in size from 1 mm long to 38 mm long and live in most
environments. The diets of ants range from flowers and seeds to fluids from
their own larvae. Ants have been able to successfully inhabit so many different
environments because their populations have been able to -
O adapt to a variety of habitats and food sources
O hybridize with other species of insects
O fill niches usually occupied by mammals
O occupy habitats that have no other life-forms

Cladistics is a way of classifying organisms by examining the characteristics of their ancestors and descendants and depicting the relationships in a cladogram. which of the following best describes a challenge in classifying organisms this way? a. there are millions of species on earth, and a cladogram is not a practical means for classifying all of them. b. it is impossible to tell which organisms are most closely related to each other using a cladogram. c. cladograms are detail-oriented and do not provide a useful understanding of evolutionary relationships. d. there is a limited number of ways to organize the information, so most cladograms end up looking very similar.
