Question 10 • FL-2000310-Biology 1 Sem 2

Which example best demonstrates the importance of having knowledge of evolutionary relationships?

Answer
A
illustration of a plant leaf
B
organ transplantation between species
C
blood donation from a human to a human
D
DNA sequence of an insect

Explanation

Knowledge of evolutionary relationships helps scientists determine how closely related different species are and whether their biological systems are sufficiently similar. This is especially important when considering organ transplantation between species, because compatibility and rejection risks depend partly on those similarities. Blood donation from one human to another involves the same species, while a leaf illustration or an insect DNA sequence alone does not demonstrate this application.
