Periderm is the corky outer layer of a plant stem which the plant creates as a result of an injury or infection so as to protect itself further. Protoderm is the thin layer which covers embryos, as well as the root and stems, and later produces epidermis, which is the outer layer of tissue of plants (anywhere where periderm doesn't cover them).
The question is incomplete as it does not have the option which are:
- primates A and B are more closely related to each other than either is to primate C.
- all three primates appeared on Earth at about the same time.
- either primate A or primate B must be a direct ancestor of primate C.
- primate C must have been the ancestor of both primate A and primate B.
Answer:
Primates A and B are more closely related to each other than either is to primate C.
Explanation:
In the given question, on the basis of the given information, it can be predicted that the Primate A and B are more closely related to C as the DNA sequences of these two primates are almost similar. The similarity of the sequence suggests that these primates have descended or diverged from a common ancestor.
The DNA sequence of C is different from both A and B which shows that both A and B are different from the C.
Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
