Consider the following amino acid sequence for three different species, A, B, and C. Each number is a different amino acid. The letter in each cell depicts the nitrogenous base that is associated with each amino acid. Which two species are most closely related based on this part of the genome?

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are provided in attachment.

All species are equally related

Explanation:

In the given question, the bases of amino acids have been provided and we know that amino acid is coded by the three nitrogenous bases called codons.

In the given question, the sequence of DNA for:

1. Species A - GTC AGT CAG A, mRNA will be- CAG UCA GUC

2. Species B - GAC TGT GAC T, mRNA will be- CUG ACA CUG

3. Species C - GTC ACA GAG A, mRNA will be- CAG UGU CUC

The amino acid sequence will be-

1.  Species A-Glutamine, Serine, Valine

2. Species B-Leucine, Threonine, Leucine

3. Species C- Glutamine, Cysteine, Leucine

From this, it can be deduced that all the species are equally related as the Glutamine is present in species A and C and Leucine in species B and C.

d. in sexual reproduction, offspring have more chromosomes than

either parent.

asexual reproduction results in offspring which are genetically the same as the parent organism (not counting a rare mutation). sexual reproduction produces a random mixture of the genetics derived from both parents

explanation:

he forelimbs below belong to four species that descended in a direct line from the ancestral mammal shown above. of the four descendants shown, which species most likely appeared earliest in evolutionary history?
