Explain what Darwin meant when he talked about the common descent of all life, and what the significance is of the branch points on a phylogenetic tree. 1  When Darwin talked about the common descent of all life he was referring to the fact that all life evolved from a common ancestor.
This tree diagram shows the relationships between several groups of organisms. The root of the current tree connects the organisms featured in this tree to their containing group and the rest of the Tree of Life. The basal branching point in the tree represents the ancestor of the other groups in the tree. This ancestor diversified over time into several descendent subgroups, which are represented as internal nodes and terminal taxa to the right.
