One day after a biology class four of your friends argue about the difference between phylogeny and systematics. Which friend is right?

A. Friend A states that systematics and phylogenies are really the same, one is more recent than the other, but basically they are the same. B. Friend B says that systematics is the same as cladistics and cladistics is reconstructing clades, which ultimately lead to the development of phylogenies. C. Friend D says that the way she remembers is that systematics is the reconstruction and study of phylogenies. D. Friend C argues that systematics is the actual collecting and cataloguing of specimens into museums that can be used later by scientists to construct clades and phylogenies.
