The approach that consists in comparing DNA sequences to find evidence of a shared evolutionary history is called ________.
A)genomics
B)proteomics
C)comparative anatomy
D)bioinformatics

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The approach of comparing DNA sequences is a part of bioinformatics, which involves the use of computational tools and methods to analyze biological data, including genetic data. Genomics and proteomics are broader fields that also involve the study of genetic and molecular data, but do not necessarily specialize in comparing DNA sequences. Comparative anatomy focuses on similarities and differences in physical structures across different species, which may or may not reflect shared evolutionary history.
