Question

Which of the following is incorrect for homologs? (A) They are similar sequence in two different organisms that have been derived from common ancestor sequence (B) They are similar sequence in two different organisms that have been arisen due to a speciation event (C) They are similar sequence within a single organism that has arisen due to a gene duplication event (Đ) They are similar sequence that do not share the same evolutionary origin.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

A series of organic compounds that have similar structural features but differ from adjacent members by (−CH2) group is referred to as homologous series.

They have same general formula and because of a same functional group, they have similar chemical properties but due to varying mass, they have different physical properties.

Option D is correct.
