4. Based on the chart above, what species do humans appear to be most related to? Why?

Most related = least differences

(assuming this chart is comparison between the differences of nucleotides in a conserved sequence) Because the more changes in nucleotides (e.g. through mutations) related to when two organisms diverged from a common ancestor.

For example, if you have sequences from 3 different organisms:
1. AAAAAA
2. AAAAAT
3. AAAATT

we can say that 3 is more related to 2 than to 1 because they are more similar (or alternatively, have less differences).

5. Based on the chart above, what species do humans appear to be least related to? Why?

Least Related = most differences
