PLEASE HELP 15 POINTS A biochemist is studying several different species of bacteria to determine if they have a common evolutionary ancestor. Which of the following would provide the best evidence that the species are closely related?

Comparing the different hosts each species of bacteria uses
Comparing the metabolic pathways of each species of bacteria
Determining the conditions under which each species of bacteria will survive
Determining the type of disease each species of bacteria may cause

┗(•ˇ_ˇ•)―→Comparing the different hosts each species of bacteria uses

humans can cause extinction of a species through overharvesting, pollution, habitat destruction, introduction of invasive species (such as new predators and food competitors), overhunting, and other influences. explosive, unsustainable human population growth is an essential cause of the extinction crisis.

i didn't have the answer choices , but i tried my best.

an active site is a region that is present on an enzyme where the reactants or the substrate molecules we can say bind and experience a chemical reaction. the substrate is basically a reactant whose concentration is changing and that is converting into a product after binding at the active site of an enzyme
