Gene based phylogenetic studies indicate that annelids and mollusks share a recent common ancestor
The kinds of evidence that indicates how closely species are related are evidence of DNA and protein structure.
they are more related to roundworms
As like all other ocean creatures, they have gills. U have to look closely.
contraction of cytoplasm XD I love Navdeep <3
Both Clams and Octopuses are Mollusks. Clams are under the subphylum Bivalves, and octopuses are cephalopods. Lobsters on the other hand, are not Mollusks. They are crustaceans. Also, an obvious difference is the lobsters exoskeleton.
Annelida is the phylum Annelids belong to, hope I helped :)
Birds

They are not THAT closely related; bats are mammals, not birds. Both mammals and birds are vertebrate animals.
the role in which molecular evidence play in determining how closely two species are related to each other is through the cladogram
Hebrew and the ancient Canaanite language were very similar and are both considered West Semitic languages. Archaeological evidence indicates that an identifiably different Hebrew culture did not emerge until about the tenth century BCE.
Molecular evidence helps determine the genetic similarities and differences between species by comparing their DNA sequences. The more similar the DNA sequences are between two species, the more closely related they are believed to be. This information can be used to construct phylogenetic trees and identify evolutionary relationships among different species.
