Answer:

Every organism possesses in its ribosome a protein that is similar to rpl4. This protein has an amino acid sequence that is similar to the sequence of E. coli’s rpl4.

Explanation:

Phylogenetic tree is a diagram which represents the similarities between different organisms and shows their evolutionary histories.

The presence of a similar genetic sequence or amino acid sequence shows that the gene is common in all those organisms. This means that all organisms had a common ancestor through which the gene or amino acid was transferred. The genetic r amino acid sequence remained common in all the different organisms.
