A Scientist Has Discovered a New Organism and Wishes to Classify

A scientist has discovered a new organism and wishes to classify it based on morphology and genetics.While he is waiting on the genomic data, he analyzes the morphological data.The new organism has homologous structures to birds and analogous structures to bats.However, he observes one trait that is shared with bats but not birds.What should he do?

A) tentatively group it with bats and speculate that the trait shared only with bats is an ancestral rather than a derived trait.
B) tentatively group it with birds and speculate that the trait shared only with bats is a derived rather than an ancestral trait
C) tentatively group it with bats because he observes both analogous traits with bats and a shared ancestral trait with bats.
