Answer:

They have similar base sequences.

Explanation:

The relationship between two species might be so close that the evolution of one species affects the evoluution of the other species.

Scientists compare the DNA base sequences of different species to determine evolutionary relationships. Species that share more similarities in their DNA bas sequences are more closely related than those who share fewere similarities.Scientists hypothesize that if two species have similarities in their base sequence,they share a common ancestor.

Answer:

the similarities  in the organic bases sequence

Explanation:

Generally the DNA  of all organism contains sequences of  4-bases adenine, thiamine, Cytosine and Guanine.The information stored  in the DNA are usually encoded by the paining of theses bases.Therefore all organisms contain specific paring of these bases, and therefore have a unique DNA.

Encoded information from DNA  are transcribed as these bases to mRNA as Codons, and are translated when paired with complementary Anti codon on the tRNA.Therefore encoded information  are translated as Amino acids,with three bases  translating one Amino acid. Therefore the expression of theses bases is the major components of organism DNA  since it represented the genetic information needed to be expressed..

Therefore if an organism is investigated to  have evolved from another, definitely they must share  almost the same sequence of bases . Thus their DNA should  be closely match. This is what happens in DNA of chimpanzee,which is 98 % similar to man, because of similarities in the bases sequence in the two DNA s.

gogolik [260]

• Homologous structures: Both Ostriches have wings similar in form to those of their ancestors, but that do not allow the birds to fly.

Homologous structures are those that have structural similarities but are different in function. For example, if we look at the anatomical structure of a bird’s wing, it is very similar in structure with a human arm. However, over the course of time they have evolved to perform different functions.

• Vestigial structures: The inner ear bones of mammals have evolved from bones that form the jaws of reptiles.  

Vestigiality refers to the process in which some structure lose their function over the course of evolution in some specie but they are functionally normal in other species.  Such a structure is the inner ear bones of mammals which donot perform an important function in mammals but do perform in reptiles.

• DNA sequence data: Both Genes involved in RNA replication are conserved among bacteria and animals, suggesting a common evolutionary origin.

The sequencing of genetic data is an excellent method of finding the evolutionary histories and relatedness of different organisms. This field of sciences is called phylogenetics and the mentioned example is the result of phylogenetics.

• Analogous structures: The jointed legs of insects and vertebrates arose independently, indicating a different evolutionary origin.  

Analogous structures are those that have similar function but they look very different in structure or anatomy. This is because they have been evolved from different ancestors and perform different functions. One example of these structures is mentioned, The jointed legs of insects and vertebrates that look different bur perform same function.
