Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pseudogenes may retain gene-like features such as promoters and splice sites (A). They can provide insight into evolutionary history as they are remnants of once-functional genes (C). Pseudogenes typically have sequences similar to functional genes, as they are derived from them (D).
