For decades, scientists relied on the fossil record and comparative anatomy to assemble evolutionary lineages. Which statement describes a limitation of these methods? (1 point) They are no longer relevant because the fossil record is complete. They can show false relationships between organisms that are not reflected in the DNA. They are not reliable evidence of how the body structures of organisms evolved. They cannot be used to determine when species evolved.

They can show false relationships between organisms that are not reflected in the DNA

Explanation:

Okay so there is a thing called "convergent evolution" which basically means that different species coming from different evolutionary lines evolve the same traits. It's really easy to mistake convergent evolution for evolutionary similarities. From the fossil record, it's easy to see the bones of one animal and to see that they are similar to another but that doesn't prove that they are related because it's often due to convergent evolution.

the diploid number of chromosomes is sometimes represented by the symbol 2n. for the fruit fly, the diploid number is 8, which can be written as 2n = 8, where n represents twice the number of chromosomes in a sperm or egg cell.
