Answer:

The organism closest to the coral snake is organism 3, followed by organism 1 and finally organism 2.

Explanation:

The more similar the DNA composition of the organisms, the closer and more closely related they are. With that we can say that the coral snake is closer to organism 3, since the sequence of nitrogenous bases in its DNA is more similar, in relation to other organisms. After organism 3, it is organism 1 that most resembles a coral snake. Organism 2, however, has a different DNA composition, the organism being less similar and the more distant from the coral snake.

I found the exercise on the internet with the images and brief descriptions. Attached is an image of it.

To the DNA replication bin:
-Image of one cell dividing into two cells, and the mother cell has its DNA being unfolded and replicated.
-"DNA -> 2DNA (copying one DNA molecule to make two identical DNA molecules)"

To the gene expression bin:
-Image of only one cell with some arrows within it indicating the gene expression flow: DNA -> mRNA -> protein
-"DNA->mRNA->protein"
-"transcription"
-"translation"

To the recombination bin:
-Image with two cells being one the donor and the other one the recipient. The recipient has DNA with different colours pretending to represent that its DNA has different origins.
-"transformation"
-"conjugation"
-"transduction"
