Answer:
If the string of beads refer to a chromosome, then each bead is a gene responsible for one or more traits.
If the string of beads refer to a gene, then each bead refers to the sequence of nitrogenous bases in one strand of the gene.
Explanation:
A chromosome is composed of several genes.
A gene is composed of several nucleotides each containing a nitrogenous base. A gene is primarily made functional by the sequence of nitrogenous bases in its structure. If AGATTCA is a hypothetical sequence of the nitrogenous bases on one strand of a hypothetical gene then TCTAAGT will be the sequence of nitrogenous bases on the complementary strand of that particular gene.
Answer;
No, they would not form a monophyletic group of close relatives with a recent common ancestor.
Explanation;
-This is because their similarities are due to convergent evolution (adaptation to the bloodsucking lifestyle); phylogenetic analysis is based on homologous features, not analogous features.
-Convergent evolution is the process by which unrelated or distantly related organisms evolve similar body forms, coloration, organs, and adaptations. Phylogenetic analysis is based on homologous features, which the above organisms lacks. Homologous traits are those traits that are shared by two or more different species that share a common ancestor.
