Question 1 of 10 10 Points
You are working to catalogue some of the species in the Amazon rainforest
before they become extinct from logging. You collect 3 organisms that all look
similar to the Coral snake and do a phylogenetic analysis on them before
classifying and naming them. The Coral snakes DNA barcode is
ATTCGCGATAC. Compare it to each sample organism's DNA barcode to
determine how related they are to the Coral Snake, from closest to furthest.
Organism 1: ATTGGCCATAC
Organism 2: ATCCGGGATAG
Organism 3: ATTCGCCATAC

The organism closest to the coral snake is organism 3, followed by organism 1 and finally organism 2.

Explanation:

The more similar the DNA composition of the organisms, the closer and more closely related they are. With that we can say that the coral snake is closer to organism 3, since the sequence of nitrogenous bases in its DNA is more similar, in relation to other organisms. After organism 3, it is organism 1 that most resembles a coral snake. Organism 2, however, has a different DNA composition, the organism being less similar and the more distant from the coral snake.
