Answer:
C. This is an example of VNTRs.
Explanation:
VNTRs are Variable Number Tandem Repeats. These are short sequences of DNA repeated in tandem (that is, the sequences are repeated one next to the other) a certain number of times. Unrelated individuals have a different number of repetitions for a certain region of the DNA, therefore the total length of the fragment is variable among individuals, depending on how many times the short sequence is repeated.
Answer:
The answer is A) Homologous structures
Explanation:
Homologous Structures:
- Homologous structures are anatomical features in an organism that are structurally and functionally diverse but they originate from a single common ancestor.
- Homologous structures possess a similar basic internal structure but can have entirely different morphology and function.
- For example, the wings of a bat and a human's arm have the same internal structure but they have different functions.
- Vestigial structures are evolutionary remnants that no longer serve a purpose in modern forms or descendants of the original organism.
- Inherited and developmental are out of context in terms of evolutionary relationships.
