Question 5

+3 marksNumerical answer

You enter an alien world as a renowned computational biologist. The table below is presented to you as part of a preliminary study done by a group of scientists to study the local fauna around the base camp. They have analyzed the DNA and figured out that there are only two bases “+” and “0”. The table below represents the DNA sequence in 6 positions for the different species found.

The DNA sequence ("+" and "0")
