Give an example of characteristics being used to determine how close two species are in evolutionary terms.

Explanation

The changes in DNA during reproduction are mainly responsible of evolution. The changes which take place in the DNA of species go on accumulating from one generation to the next. So if the changes in the DNA of any two species are less, then the two species are quite close to one another in evolutionary terms . But if the changes in the DNA of two species are much more, then the two speies will be far apart from one anogher in evolutiionary terms. Thus it is the characteristic of the extent o change in the DNA which is being used to betermine how close two species are in evolutionary tarms.
