Detailed explanation-1: -Comparative genomics is a field of biological research in which researchers use a variety of tools to compare the complete genome sequences of different species. By carefully comparing characteristics that define various organisms, researchers can pinpoint regions of similarity and difference.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA Fingerprinting Although more than 99.1% of the genome is the same throughout the human population, the remaining 0.9% of human DNA shows variations between individuals. These variable DNA sequences, termed polymorphic markers, can be used to both differentiate and correlate individuals.
Detailed explanation-3: -The methods used for DNA analysis in genetic engineering are: Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Northern blotting. Southern blotting.
Detailed explanation-4: -The chimpanzee and bonobo are humans’ closest living relatives. These three species look alike in many ways, both in body and behavior.
