archaeopteryx is a genus of early bird that is transitional between feathered dinosaurs and modern birds.  compare the gene sequences in the chart with the gene sequence from the archaeopteryx to determine if the archaeopteryx more recently shared a common ancestor with the parrot or the t. rex.  you will need to transcribe the dna into mrna first, and then translate the mrna codons using the codon chart to answer the question.
