amino acid, found at each position in a
sequence alignment
e. syntenic block 5. set of genes related by processes of
duplication and divergence
f. orthologs 6. chromosomal region with the same genes in
the same order in two different species

selection
7. genes with sequence similarities in two
different species that arose from a common
ancestral gene
