(top or bottom) Species A, B, C, D, and, E are all extant species (living today; not to be confused
with “extinct” species). Consider the common ancestor shared between humans and species A
(ancestor A-H), the common ancestor between species B and humans (ancestor B-H), etc. Which of the
two trees below best represents the phylogenetic relationship between species shown in the
divergence plot above (top tree or bottom tree)?
