Name the area on a cladogram that represents the point from which the species split from the ancestor.
A cladogram consists of vertical or horizontal lines that branche off in different directions. The place where the line branches is called the
.

Node

Explanation:

Cladograms are a graphical representation of the evolutionary relationship between organisms. These are usually shown as branches from a central point, which represents a common ancestor. In rooted cladograms, the branches are shown relative to the time elapsed since evolving from a common ancestor joined at the node, or point of divergence.

Evolution typically occurs after accumulating mutation, and natural selection of beneficial traits that confer greater chances for survival.
