What does the diagram tell us about the evolutionary history of
humans and chimpanzees? Select all true statements.
O Humans and chimpanzees have a different number of chromosomes and
are therefore unrelated.
Human chromosome number 2 is a fusion of chimpanzee chromosome 2A
and 2B.
Human and chimpanzees share a common ancestor.

One version of MC1R causes cells to make red pigments, while another version causes our cells to make black pigments. The red version causes red hair. The black version causes black hair. The two versions are called O homozygous and heterozygous homologous chromosomes alleles sister chromatidsarrow_forward
- Polyploidy is very common in flowering plants: approximately 40% of all flowering plant species are polyploids. Although polyploidy exists in many different animal groups, it is much less common. Why is polyploidy more common in plants than in animals?
