Big Cats | Big cats art, Wild cats, Big cats

Question 4 options:

because lions and tigers both need to hunt


because lions and tigers have many of the same genes


because lions and tigers have the same type of cells


because lions and tigers share the same organelles

Answer 1

B. Because lions and tigers have many of the same genes.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can rule out A, since all big cats and other predatory animals must hunt to survive.

C can be ruled out, as all animals have roughly the same cells.

D can be ruled out as well, since all animal cells have the same organelles (essentially the same reason C can be ruled out.)

That leaves us with option B. B is the most likely answer, as lions and tigers share most of their DNA with one another.
