Cladograms use lines that branch of into different directions ending at a clade, which is a group of organisms that share the same last common ancestor.
Cladograms are useful for:
1. Showing the evolutionary patterns in the organisms, and how and why did they occurred.
2. For better and easier classification of the organisms, as well as tracing their ancestors.
