Incomplete lineage sorting happens when the ancestral species has loci with a great variety of allelic variations. In the case of human evolution, what does incomplete lineage sorting cause? O It causes that phylogenies using nuclear genes have less support than phylogenies using mitochondrial genes O It causes that primates can hybridize among species O It causes that phylogenies show that humans are more closely related to gorillas than to chimpanzees (and bonobos) It causes that phylogenies showing chimpanzees (and bonobos) more closely related to humans are less prone to error
10. Refer to the figure shown. Species Stripe Color 1 2 3 B. C R The figure shows the phylogeny of seven species of beetles (A-G) and whether the beetles have (?) or do not have (x×) one of three stripes. It also indicates the color of the beetle (R for red and G for green). Based on the phylogenetic tree and the principle of parsimony, the absence of stripe in species is most likely O 1; E and F; an evolutionary reversal O 2; E and F; due to convergent evolution O 2; E and F; a synapomorphy O 1; E and F; a synapomorphy O 1; E andF; due to convergent evolution
