A donkey and a beetle both use legs for locomotion, but the donkey has an 1 point
internal bony skeleton while the beetle has an exoskeleton made of chitin.
Which of the statements accurately describe the relationship between the
donkey and beetle? *
These organisms have homologous structures and therefore have a recent common
ancestor
The DNA sequences for these two organisms will show 99% homology since they
both code for legs
The organisms share a recent common ancestor because the legs of these organisms
are vestigial structures.
The donkey and the beetle do not share a recent common ancestor because the legs
of these organisms have a common purpose but not a common structure.
