The genetic variation between humans and orangutans is the greatest is the right option.

Explanation:

A phylogenetic tree is illustration which shows evolutionary relationship between different species. This concept is based on Darwin's descent with modification.

Human and orangutan are 97% similar in their DNA sequences.

The difference in DNA bases shows large genetic variations in both the species.

The species are organized on the basis of traits that are changed over time as compared to their ancestors as they evolve.

Less related species will have more differences in their DNA sequence.

The phylogenetic tree formed indicates that orangutan and human are less related to each other than other species.

arlik [135]

Answer:

<em>ATP</em> or <em>Adenosine triphosphate</em> is the chief compounds which are used by the living things to store energy.

<em>ATP</em> is the compound that captures the chemical energy released through the degradation of food. It <em>stores</em> the captured energy and <em>releases</em> it at the time of need experienced by the organism.

It is made up of adenine, ribose sugar, and a phosphate group. It is produced in a cell organelle called <em>mitochondria</em> through a process called <em>respiration</em>.

Discuss 3 different types of mutations that can happen
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Un cambio en la secuencia de bases en el ADN o ARN se conoce como mutación . ¿La palabra mutación te hace pensar en ciencia ficción y monstruos con ojos de insecto? Piensa de nuevo. Todos tienen mutaciones. De hecho, la mayoría de las personas tienen decenas o hasta cientos de mutaciones en su ADN. Las mutaciones son esenciales para que ocurra la evolución. Son la fuente principal de todo el material genético nuevo -nuevos alelos - en una especie. Aunque la mayoría de las mutaciones no tienen efectos en los organismos en que ocurren, algunas mutaciones son beneficiosas. Incluso las mutaciones dañinas rara vez causan cambios drásticos en los organismos.

(b) Benzoates, Nitrates, sulphites are the food preservatives chemicals which are used mostly in food preparation so that it can be stored for long period. These chemicals are harmful for human and can cause disease in the human. They can cause severe asthma in humans. The international agency for the research of cancer has reviewed ingested nitrates and nitrites are probably carcinogenic to humans.
