Organism-classification systems {cladistics}| can depend on evolutionary, gene, structural, and functional features.
Species can split into independently evolving lines {clade}|. Different clades have different speciation rates, which can change over time. Clades determine classes and hierarchies, shown in branching diagrams {cladogram}. Cladogram nodes represent shared homologies.
