Question

The more recently two species shared a common ancestor

• A. The greater their morphological differences will be.
• B. The less their DNA sequences will match.
• C. The more their DNA sequences will match.
• D. The more variation there will be in their amino acid sequences.

Answer 1

The correct option is C The more their DNA sequences will match.

If two species have evolved from a recent ancestor, there will be a greater DNA match between the two newly formed species and also the ancestor.

So, the correct answer is 'The more their DNA sequences will match'
