Detailed explanation-1: -Evolutionary taxonomy, evolutionary systematics or Darwinian classification is a branch of biological classification that seeks to classify organisms using a combination of phylogenetic relationship (shared descent), progenitor-descendant relationship (serial descent), and degree of evolutionary change.

Detailed explanation-2: -Phylogenetics is the study of evolutionary relationships among biological entities – often species, individuals or genes (which may be referred to as taxa).

Detailed explanation-3: -Systematics – the systematic classification of organisms and the evolutionary relationships among them; taxonomy. Phylogeny – the evolutionary history of a group or lineage. Nomenclature – the system of scientific names applied to taxa (groups of organisms).

Detailed explanation-4: -Sytematics is commonly defined as the study of biological diversity and the relationships among organisms. Taxonomy, that component of systematics specifically focusing on the theory and practice of classification, is not clearly separable and both are frequently used interchangeably by biologists.

Detailed explanation-5: -Evolutionary relationships are the relationships between two different organisms that are related through the global process of evolution. In other words, they are the relationships between two species that have a common ancestor.
