You have three species a, b, and c. assume that they form a monophyletic group
a's gene sequence is very similar to b
a has some physical similarities to b.

b's gene sequence is very different from c's
b has some physical similarities to c
select any answers that are correct
1. a and b are probably closely related
2. b and c are probably closely related
3. a and c are probably closely related
4. b is probably an outgroup while a and c are sister taxa
5. a is probably an outgroup while b and c are sister taxa
6. c is probably an outgroup while a and b are sister taxa

1 and 6 are correct

Explanation:

1. A and B are probably closely related - true, as reflected by their close gene sequences which usually represents a very close genetic relationship

2. B and C are probably closely related  - false, if their gene sequences are very different then they are probably not so closely related

3. A and C are probably closely related  - false, we know A and B are close, and B and C are very different, therefore A is probably also very different

4. B is probably an outgroup while A and C are sister taxa  - false, A and B are highly similar

5. A is probably an outgroup while B and C are sister taxa  - false, B and C are very different genetically

6. C is probably an outgroup while A and B are sister taxa - true, we know A and B share similar gene sequences, whereas C is distinct.

d bonding propertys

explanation:

carbon can form so many different compounds not just with oxygen

phylogenetic tree is the tree of life or evolution tree. it shows the different branches of evolution. the sequence goes like tissues - coelom - backbone - endoskeleton - segmentation
