Since all organisms have the same DNA, just different amounts and sequences, the more similar the sequences, the more closely related the organisms.
well, they can compare because of evolution and who knows 1000 years ago it might of have been the same animal>=)
Yes, but you would be surprised just how much DNA that we share with other species: chimpanzees 98%, mice 92%, Zebra fish 76%, fruit flies 51% , and bacteria (E coli) 18%.
What type of protein will be produced
A group of similar organisms that can produce fertile offspring are species.
family
Species that are in the same family are more closely related than species that are only in the same order. The biological classification of family falls between order and genus.
fertile
the role in which molecular evidence play in determining how closely two species are related to each other is through the cladogram
similarity
TRUE :)))
DNA sequences
The classification with the most similar species is the genus, as it groups species that are closely related and share common characteristics..species within the same genus are more closely related to each other than species in different genera.
Copperheads and cottonmouths are closely related to the rattlesnakes.
A group of similar organisms that can produce fertile offspring are species.
The genus name is the part of a scientific name that is the same for similar species. It represents a group of closely related species that share certain characteristics.
A taxon made up of similar species is called a genus. Genera are groups of closely related species that share common characteristics and are grouped together based on evolutionary relationships. Members of the same genus are more closely related to each other than they are to species in other genera.
because unrelated species can evolve similar traits through convergent evolution.
A genus is a low-level taxonomical rank that groups together closely-related species. These closely-related species have a common ancestor.
The bobcat is a lynx and closely related to the other 3 species of lynx.
theya are closely related to cattle
