New cards

Homologous Structures

Similarities and differences among homologous structures help determine how recently species shared a common ancestor.

2
New cards

Amino Acid Sequences

Closely related species have more similar amino acid sequences in proteins, showing shared ancestry.

3
New cards

Weakness of Amino Acid Comparison

Can be affected by mutations.

4
New cards

Comparison of Small Segments of DNA

Similar genes across species suggest inherited traits from a common ancestor.

5
New cards

Weakness of Small DNA Segment Comparison

Only focuses on a small part of the genome, not representing overall relationships.

6
New cards

Comparison of Genomes

The more similar the full genomes, the more closely related the species are.

7
New cards

Weakness of Genome Comparison

Requires advanced technology and lots of data, which isn't always available.
