Tree Diagrams are a type of graphic organizer that shows how items are related to one another. The tree's trunk represents the main topic, and the branches represent relevant facts, factors, influences, traits, people, or outcomes.
Uses of Tree Diagrams:
Tree diagrams can be used to sort items or classify them. A family tree is an example of a tree diagram. Other examples of trees are cladistic trees (used in biological classification) and dichotomous keys (used to detemine what group a specimen belongs to in biology). Tree diagrams are also used as visual in statistics to document the outcomes of probabalistic events (like tossing a coin).

Biological Concepts that Use Tree-Like Structures:
Cladistics Cladistics is a method of classifying organisms based on common ancestry and the branching of the evolutionary family tree. Organisms that share common ancestors (and therefore have similar features) are grouped into taxonomic groups called clades. Cladistics can also be used to predict properties of yet-to-be discovered organisms. |
Dichotomous Key A dichotomous key is a series of questions which leads to the identification of an item. You can make a dichotomous key for identifying common objects. |
