Cladogram shows that Osteichthyes should be under group A. Going back to their characteristics, they’re a group of fish that have the derived characteristics of jaws and true bones. So, moving backwards from group A these derived characteristics are clearly traceable, wherein each line is showing a relationship/connection.
