Classifictaion Usinf Dna Or Proteins Flashcards
1
Q
Three ways to classify evolutionary relationships
A
Genome sequencing
Comparing amino acid sequence
Immunological comparisons
2
Q
Genome sequencing
A
DNA base sequence of one organisms can be compared to another to see how closely related they are
Closely related species will have a higher percentage of similarity in dna base sequence
3
Q
Comparing amino acid sequence
A
Related organisms have similar DNA sequence and so similar amino acid sequence in their proteins
4
Q
Immunological comparisons
A
Similar proteins will bind to the same antibodies
