Answer

similar characters evolved owing to convergent evolution; similar characters are ancestral

Explanation:

Convergent evolution happens when two organisms belonging to different species, living at different times or different continents but the same biome develop analogous structures hence making them appear similar.  The analogous structures were not present in the known ancestors of both groups.

Therefore convergent evolution is ignored during constructing phylogenies

Also similar characteristics that are ancestral are ignored.

D is the correct answer because the capital letter represents the dominant allele. All of the plants are pure bred. The first pea plant is short (tt) with purple flowers (PP). The second is tall (TT) with white flowers (pp). Therefore the cross is ttPP x TTpp

laila [671]

Explanation:

If a man who's a carrier for albinism marries an albino what percentage of their children will be albinos, however if both parents carry the gene, there's a 1 in 4 chance that their child will have albinism and a 1 in 2 chance that their child will be a carrier. Carriers do not have albinism but can pass on the gene.
