The cladogram that fits the molecular data table the best is Cladogram C.
According to molecular evidence, the hippo is more closely linked to whales than to cows or deer. As a result, cladogram C, which depicts the whale and hiAccording to the table, the deer and cow have the fewest differences (0), thus they should be placed closest together on the cladogram, branching from the same common ancestor. Cladograms A, C, and D show this.
Because the pig and whale differ so greatly (8), they should NOT have descended from the same common ancestor, as demonstrated by cladogram D. On the cladogram, the hippo and whale have the fewest differences (1 difference), implying that they share a recent common ancestor.
ppo descending, is the most likely.
