The quagga was an African animal that is now extinct. It looked partly like a horse, and partly like a zebra. In 1872, the last living quagga was photographed. Mitochondrial DNA was obtained from a museum specimen of a quagga and sequenced. a. Perform a multiple sequence alignment of quagga (Equus quagga boehmi), horse (Equus caballus), and zebra (Equus burchelli) mitochondrial DNA. (Any clone of horse and zebra's mtDNA could be applicable.) Record accession numbers of the sequences you analyze and write the number of conserved nucleic acids in three species. (3 points) b. To which animal was the quagga (Equus quagga boehmi) more closely related. (2 point) c. Which program(s)/database(s) have you used to answer this
