Consider the following aligned sequences from two closely related species:
Species 1: ATT GCA GGC TTG AAA
Species 2: ATA GAA GGT TTG AAC
Make the simplifying assumption that all substitutions at the third codon position are
synonymous whereas substitutions at the first or second positions are
nonsynonymous.
When filling in the blanks, write whole numbers without decimals (eg 8) and write
non-whole numbers with a number in front of the decimal and two numbers after
the decimal, rounded up (eg 0.15).
