a. From table 1, it is evident that Elephas 2 contains greatest number of sequence dissimilarity with the reference animal. Out of ttal 23 nucleotide, Elephas -2 showed difference at 13 positions.
d. Though organisms differ in their morphology, they may have close evolutionary relationship. Morphological similarity may be due to exploitation of similar environment, similar food habit and similar prey predator relationship. It may happen that two animals which have distant evolutionary relationship, may have similar morphology due to the reason that they both exploit similar ecological niche. On the other hand, it is evident that two morphologically dissimilar organisms are actually evolutionary close. Their morphological dissimilarity is due to exploitation of drastically different ecological niche.

please answer ( c ) and ( b ) Read each question carefully, Write your response in the space provided for an question. Answers must be written out in paragraph form. Outlines, buleted alone are not acceptable and will not be scored. Researchers studying the phylogenetic relationships among African elephants (Loxodonta arricana), Asian elephants (Elephas maximus), and woolly mammoths (Mammuthus primigenius) analyzed cytochrome b DNA sequences from several organisms of each species. Cytochrome b is a mitochondrial protein that functions...
