In evolutionary biology, phylogenetic trees are used to exhibit and illustrate the evolutionary relationships of two or more organisms, and identify the origins of life altogether. To achieve this, there are three methods of classification which are phonetics, cladistics, and taxonomic groups.

the person is correct but also if you want to write it yourself make sure to include:

The three methods are traditional, phenetic, and cladistic.

The traditional method stresses common ancestry and divergence.

The phenetic method is a process by which organisms are grouped together based on the number of similarities.

The cladistic method focuses on shared, derived characteristics not found in other groups.

A competent bacterial strain with genes a, b, and c is transformed by a donor bacterial fragment. Cotransformation frequencies f
mina [271]

Answer:

a) Genes b and c are farthest apart.

Explanation:

Transformation occurs when a competent bacteria cell takes up genetic material from the environment. Usually a donor cell donates its gene fragment  which is then incorporated into the chromosome or plasmid of recipient bacterial cell.

Cotransformation occurs when two genes are taken up together by the recipient. The closer the genes lie to each other, more are the chances of them being taken up together. Contransformation frequency will be higher if two genes are close to each other. Here, cotransformation frequencies between three genes are given. Amongst them, the lowest frequency is 0.0064% which is present between gene b and c. Hence, gene b and c are the farthest apart.
