Answer:

Chimpanzees.

The human shows 98.8% sequence similarity with chimpanzee. The sequence similarity between human and gorilla DNA is 98.4%. This means Chimpanzee are more closely related to humans than gorillas.

Thus, the answer is chimpanzee.

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A ribonucleotide is very similar to a deoxyribonucleotide with the major difference being that they have a H instead of an OH in the 1’ carbon. Each ribonucleotide also has a phosphate molecule in their 5’ carbon like DNA. It is this phosphate that bonds with the 1’ carbon of the next monomer to form a phosphodiester bond through a condensation process – that releases a water molecule.
