Less similar (1 mark). Degenerate nature of the genetic code means that
e. __________________________________________________________
changes to the gene sequence may not result in changes to the polypeptide
__________________________________________________________
sequence, therefore the gene sequence changes more rapidly over time than
__________________________________________________________
the polypeptide sequence (1 mark). Bonus mark if they mention introns
__________________________________________________________
changing even more rapidly due to less selection pressure to maintain
__________________________________________________________
sequence.
(2 marks)
Those regions that change the least are those that are most
f. __________________________________________________________
functionally/structurally important (1 mark), there is a selective pressure
__________________________________________________________
acting to maintain these regions. (1 mark)
