Amaya collected insects in the forest. she was unable to identify one unusual looking insect using a dichotomous key. amaya concluded that the insect must be a new species. which facts would support the conclusion that the insect is a new species?

A dichotomous key works by giving you a list of options that must be fulfilled for you to call an animal a certain species. It is like a list of traits that help you differentiate between species. The major factor is that there are no things on the key that will help her differentiate, meaning that it's a new species because its traits are not there.
