Humans are more closely related to hogs than hogs are to guinea pigs.
Explanation:
The difference in the amino acid sequence of a protein is used to know the relation between organism i.e. how closely they are related.
It is known that proteins are the result of DNA sequence ie genes of the organism.
The gene or protein is compared between organisms to understand the evolutionary evidence and similarities between them.
The less is the difference the more is the two organisms closely related as in the case of hog and human which have only 1 amino acid difference in their insulin enzyme. While guinea pig is having a difference of 17 amino acids so it is expected to be distantly related.
These relations helps the scientist to resolve the issues of crisis say insulin. They zero out the possibility of extracting the enzyme genes of possible organism and increase the yield.
The correct answer is: b. conscious neural control
Neural control of digestive tract is unconscious achieved via the autonomic nervous system.
Local nervous system of the digestive system is called the enteric or intrinsic nervous system. The major components of this nervous system are two networks or plexuses of neurons:
• The myenteric plexus – controls digestive tract motility
• The submucous plexus - regulates gastrointestinal blood flow and controls epithelial cell function.
It refers to making or crating new genes in form of mutation
in duplicates of old genes. It is also a mechanism in major way through new
genetic material is generated during evolution. The duplication happens in
event termed unequal crossing over or recombination between misaligned
homologous chromosomes during meiosis.
