Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

Scientists believe that all eukaryotes share a common ancestry because the nucleotides that make up all eukaryotic DNA are ____ Choose the correct answer.

A	free
B	ancient
C	complex
D	the same

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Characteristics of Eukaryotes Data from these fossils have led comparative biologists to the conclusion that living eukaryotes are all descendants of a single common ancestor.

Detailed explanation-2: -Comparing DNA sequences can reveal how closely two species are related. Structural evidence indicates the common ancestry of all eukaryotes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Which of the following is evidence that eukaryotes and prokaryotes share a common ancestor? All eukaryotes and prokaryotes contain linear DNA All eukaryotes and prokaryotes contain ribosomes. All eukaryotes and prokaryotes use organic molecules as an energy source; All eukaryotes and prokaryotes are capable of mitosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Why does DNA evidence tell the same story about common ancestry as anatomy, fossils, and embryological development? It’s because genes carry all of the instructions for building living things. DNA codes for proteins, and proteins make traits. Genes code for all of the proteins a cell makes.
