Chapter 29, Problem 22CONQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
Types of similarity and difference in karyotypes that are closely related to evolution.
Introduction:
An autosome or chromosome is a highly coiled structure of deoxyribonucleic acid and protein that present in the nucleus of the cell of the animal. A single piece of coiled DNA, ordeoxyribonucleic acid, consists of many genes, regulatory elements, and other

Students have asked these similar questions
What type of information can be obtained by comparing the genomesof closely related species? Of very distantly related species?
Were any of your physical traits autapomorphic or synapomorphic when plotted on the gene trees? Which ones and for which species? Phylogeneticists often refer to these physical traits as “evolutionarily significant,” what do you suppose they mean by this?
Would two species with similar traits have similiar genomes? Why?
