Answer:

Similarities:

Both natural selection and evolution work on genetic traits in populations rather than individuals. Both natural selection and evolution are involved in generating changes over generations. Both natural selection and evolution result in either extensions or death.

Difference:  

Evolution is a gradual change in the inherited traits of a population over many generations. Natural selection is a mechanism where the members of a population best suited to their environment have the best chance of surviving to pass on their genes

Answer:

Possession of analogous (convergent) traits.

Explanation:

Analogous structures are similar structures that evolved independently in two living organisms to serve the same purpose.

The term “analogous structures” comes from the root word “analogy,” which is a device in the English language where two different things on a basis of their similarities.

Analogous structures are examples of convergent evolution, where two organisms separately have to solve the same evolutionary problem – such as staying hidden, flying, swimming, or conserving water – in similar ways. The result is similar body structures that developed independently.

In the case of analogous structures, the structures are not the same, and were not inherited from the same ancestor. But they look similar and serve a similar purpose.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer: Southern blot

Explanation:

The techniques of Southern blotting helps to identify specific sequences of DNA among two or more samples that have been collected from organisms to be investigated.

This biochemical process also involves electrophoresis and hybridization of DNA to obtain the right order of the nucleotide bases, as similar order of bases would infer COMMON ANCESTRY between the two organisms.
