Answer:

Topogenic sequences share a series of structural features, and thereby computational algorithms can be used to predict these protein-membrane segments  

Explanation:

Topogenic sequences are protein segments formed by alpha-helical transmembrane domains, which are required for the insertion of membrane proteins. These domains share a series of well-defined features: they are composed of segments of about 20 hydrophobic amino-acid residues. In consequence, computational algorithms can be designed to identify protein patterns that fulfill these structural requirements (i.e. segments with a length of 20 residues, hydrophobic level, etc). The models assign a similarity threshold (threshold value) that predict if the similarity level of the protein pattern is good enough to detect a topogenic segment.

Alternate forms of a gene that lead to alternative traits are called
Savatey [412]
The answer is alleles.  In addition, the phenotype of an organism is the physical look resulting from the expression of the genes present. The principle of segregation states that substitute alleles for a trait discrete from one another throughout gamete formation and keep on distinct. A diploid organism that has two alike alleles for the same trait is named homozygous for that particular trait.

What other evidence could you use to analyze evolutionary relatedness among gibbons, monkeys, and humans?
AysviL [449]

Since the question is incomplete, the answer will include the generalize ways that can be used to analyze evolutionary relatedness among gibbons, monkeys, and humans.

Answer:

The evolutionary relationship is important to understand the evolution of the organisms. The common ancestors and closely related species of the organisms can be known by study the evolutionary relationship of the organism.

The DNA sequence and the amino acid sequence of gibbons, monkeys, and humans are quite similar with each other. The gibbons and humans have more then 99% DNA sequence similarity. The physical characteristics, cranial capacity and anatomical characteristics of the gibbons, monkeys, and humans are more or less similar with each other.
