Suppose that you need to construct a phylogeny from the genetic distance (difference) matrix data in the table below. The numbers (.065 to .280) show a relative genetic distance between the species (1–5). Which species are closely related and therefore might be grouped together in a phylogeny?

MCQs on the structure and function of DNA and RNA and how these nucleic acids are used to form proteins, and their importance in genetics and inheritance. Also covers DNA replication, transcription, gene expression, mutation and repair, recombination, molecular techniques, and appropriate molecular models.
