What kind of evidences suggested that man is more closely related with chimpanzee than with other hominoid apes?

Options

A. Evidence from DNA from sex chromosomes onl
B. Comparison of chromosomes morphology only
C. Evidence from fossil remains and the fossil mitochondrial DNA alone
D. Evidence from DNA extracted from sex chromosomes, autosomes and mitochondria

Answer

D

Explanation

Chimpanzee is more closely related to man than other hominoids. It is evidenced by chormosome banding pattern, DNA extracted from sex chromosome, autosomes and mitochondria. Molecular clock based on mitochondrial DNA are used to date recent events because this DNA mutates 5-10 times faster than nuclear DNA. Some similarities between human and chimpanzee are
(a) DNA matching shows human similarity with chimpanzee.
(b) There is little difference in banding patten in chromosome 3 and 6 in human and chimpanzee.
(c) Serum test indicates maximum homology between human and chimpanzee.
