Question

"Comparison of conserved sequences among related species usually leads to the identification of ________ sequences, which illustrate the nucleotides most often found at each position of DNA in the conserved region."

Answer 1

Answer:

consensus

Explanation:

Such type of the nucleotide sequence that is mostly present at each position is called a consensus sequence. This sequence plays an important role in the sequence alignment and some other molecular biological research and some other fields. Generally, it is made up of a small segment of the nucleotide and also considered as a conserved sequence motif because its presence is conserved on the position where it is present.
