Processes of Classification Flashcards
1
Q
How do species evolve to become different from one another?
A
Spend extended periods of time separated from each other (i.e. living in different areas, habitats)
Changes in nucleotide sequences due to DNA mutations and adaptation to environments
2
Q
How does DNA hybridisation work?
A
DNA hybridisation works to determine the level similarity in species.
It works by binding two sections of DNA together from different organisms. The more the DNA is bound (fits together), the more similar the two organisms are
