Cladogram is a diagram that tells the relationships between different groups of taxa called “clades”. Cladogram gives phylogeny (evolutionary history) of the taxa. The organisms which share derived characteristics are grouped together while constructing a cladogram. Jelly fish is a cnidarian share common characteristics such as radial symmetry, simple tissues and no body organs with other members like corals and sea anemones.
