A genetic counselor is a health-care worker who has received specialized training. They are experts in medical genetics as well as counseling.

  • They may also assist in collecting and analyzing family history and inheritance patterns, calculating recurrence risks.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Despite having exons, prokaryotes do not have introns in their genomes.
  • This means that if two organisms have the same sequence of introns and exons, they have a common ancestor, in addition to having their genes originated in a eukaryotic organism, which explains the sequence of introns.

This means that the genetic expression of these two organisms has similarities, even if they are organisms with different biological processes.
