Question 33

(Multiple Choice)

The evolutionary relationships between seven different species-G, H, J, K, L, M, and N-are diagrammed in Figure 9-25. The evolutionary relationships between seven different species-G, H, J, K, L, M, and N-are diagrammed in Figure 9-25.   Figure 9-25 Given this information, which of the following statements is FALSE? A)These are all highly related species, because the sequence divergence between the most divergent species is 3%. B)Species M is as closely related to species G as it is to species J. C)Species N is more closely related to the last common ancestor of all of these species than to any of the other species shown in the diagram. D)Species G and H are as closely related to each other as species J and K are to each other. Figure 9-25
