Question

Why do organisms look similar?

Solution

Organisms:

  1. The organisms of the same kind have a similar appearance.
  2. We've noticed that when we encounter twins or cats and dogs with the same color and traits, we get confused.
  3. Only a few organisms are single-celled, and even fewer are multicellular.
  4. The nucleus of the cell is responsible for transmitting genetic information in the form of DNA to the following generation (Deoxyribonucleic Acid).
  5. DNA replication is the most basic form of reproduction.
  6. When a reproducing cell divides, it primarily begins the process of replicating its DNA.
  7. The original DNA will be isolated from the imitation.
  8. Because a single strand of DNA is incapable of forming an organism, the cell divides into two, and so on.
  9. We obtain a cell that has been reprogrammed with fresh DNA.
  10. The proteins are generated in the new cell according to the DNA codes.
  11. Although these two cells have similar body shapes and physiologies, they are not identical.
