Use the results of the gel electrophoresis to: Part A: Identify which of the four known species is most closely related to the newly discovered species of fish. Part B: What characteristics of each species led to the decision? Part C: Explain how the relatedness of the fish species can be determined by examining where the bands are located in the electrophoresis gel. Scientists discovered a new species of fish. Using gel electrophoresis, they analyzed samples of DNA from the new species and from four known fish species. The figure below shows the bands of fish DNA from the gel electrophoresis.

Scientists discovered a new species of fish. Using gel electrophoresis, they analyzed samples of
DNA from the new species and from four known fish species. The figure below shows the bands
of fish DNA from the gel electrophoresis.
