Acladogram is a branching diagram that represents suggested evolutionary relationships among organisms based on the presence of unique traits. a scientist discovers a new organism that lacks limbs and does not have a true backbone. the organism lays eggs to produce offspring and has a cartilage-like rod known as a notochord running along its dorsal surface. on the cladogram below, select the species to which the newly discovered organism is most closely related.

The correct option is lamprey.

Explanation:

Lamprey is a kind of fish which lack jaws. They lack a true skeleton, but the cartilage is present in them. Due to lack of proper backbone, they look similar to snails. The lamprey reproduces by laying eggs in the water. Larvae tend to develop from these eggs. The lamprey releases its eggs only in freshwater. Only the mature lamprey live in the sea to act as a parasite and take food. For laying eggs, it travels to freshwater.
