April 25 Reflection

Question

Do the differences in the amino acid sequences of the cytochrome c protein affect the morphological and genetic difference between organisms

Claim

The differences in amino acid sequences of conservative proteins such as  cytochrome c affects morphological and genetic differences between organisms. 

Evidence

-As you go down the cladogram from one organisms, the other organisms have increasingly more differences in the amino acid sequence.

-The difference in the amino acid sequence between a rhesus monkey and human is 1

-The difference in the amino acid sequence between a tuna and human is 20

Justification

The rhesus monkey and humans share more morphological and genetic similarities than the tuna and human. This correlates with the difference in the amino acid sequence for cytochrome c.

Being a presenter was not a very special thing because it was simply showing ideas.

Being an interviewer is more interesting because you get to act stupid

I think I could present the information somewhat smoothly but not perfectly

I feel I could justify the claim using the evidence

I stumbled occasionally in the explanation
