Question
A hypothetical protein found in humans, chimpanzees, and orangutans has the following sequences. Underlining indicates amino acid residue differences and dashes indicate a deletion. Humans ATSAAGYDEWEGGKYLIHL--KLQNRGALLELDIGAV ATSAAGWDEWEGGKILIHLDGKLQNRGALLELDIGAV ATSAAGWDEWEGGKVLIHLDGKLQNRGALLELDIGAV Chimpanzees Orangutans What is the sequence of the protein present in the last common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees? sequence: ATSAAGWDEWEGGKVLIHILDGKLQNRGALIELDIGAV Incorrect Answer <Feedback Sorry, that's incorrect. You have not identified the sequence of the last common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees. Make sure that you enter the entire sequence and not just the parts of the sequence that are different. Consider that the orangutan protein diverged prior to the common ancestor. Note that, like the chimpanzee protein, the orangutan protein contains W at position 7. Additionally, the orangutan protein contains V at position 15 as is observed in the human protein.
