22. Which of the following events is most likely to give rise to gene families? a. intragenic mutation b. DNA segment shuffling c. gene duplication d. horizontal transfer of DNA e. none of the above
Homework Answers
Gene duplication is most likely to give rise to gene families as it causes variation which then form multigene families with high degree of divergence.
