What is the best description about dissimilar organisms such as sheep and yeast?
When two organisms are notably dissimilar, such as a cow and a yeast, we can safely conclude that they are very distantly related. Organisms that are more similar to each other, such as a cow and a deer, are more closely related to each other.
Are similar genes evidence of common ancestory?

Why do organisms tend to have traits similar to their parents?

But if you don't.. you're either adopted or something is going on with your body called genetic mutation. It's when your parent's genes merge to create singular genes.
