Amino acid differences compared with human hemoglobin Table: species: number of amino-acid differences: lamprey 125 frog 67 dog 32 Macaque 8 Question: The table indicates the number of amino acids that differ in the amino-acid sequence of the hemoglobin from selected organisms when compared to human hemoglobin. On the basis of this information, which organism would be classified as most closely related to humans?

Lui0210:

The one most closely related would be those with fewer deviations. So in this case, since the Macaque has the least differences in amino acids, it would be Macaque
