On a phylogenetic tree, which term refers to lineages that diverged from the same place?
sister taxa
basal taxa
rooted taxa
dichotomous taxa

sister taxa

Explanation:

Groups departing from the same evolutionary node are called sister taxa and are evolutionarily closer to each other than groups departing from another node. Thus, we can say that the sister taxa are evolutionarily closer (related) to each other than to the taxa that did not diverge from the same place. Similarly we can say that taxa that did not diverge from the same place, cannot be called sister taxa and are distant evolutionary.

not too sure but maybe in the hot springs.
