Dichotomous keys and branching diagrams organize different types of information about classification. how are these tools used differently?

In a dichotomous key you named then by their traits while in a branching diagram it already has the name and it's traits.

Explanation:

In dichotomous keys (also called single-entry or single-entry keys), a fixed sequence of alternatives must be followed, where multiple steps (including one or more characters) present two contrasting options (character states). As a result, only a single series of choices results in correct identification. Thus for each taxon there is a specific sequence of steps. An important factor of the dichotomous keys is that through them it is possible to name living beings through their characteristics.

A branch diagram can be used to represent a probability space. It can also be used to represent the various possibilities of a permutation or combination. This type of diagram provides a convenient way to organize information from a set of conditional events. In biology, the branch diagram shows the name and characteristics of a being and its relationship to different beings and characteristics.

diploid

Explanation:

cells that contain one copy of each are haploid
