MO640 - Multiple-choice question


What is the main difference between the Kimura model and the Jukes-Cantor model?

1) The Kimura model is used to study transitions only, while the Jukes-Cantor model is used to study transversions only.
2) The Kimura model is a recursive representation of the Jukes-Cantor model.
3) The Kimura model has a better approach than the Jukes-Cantor model, because transitions and transversions receive different probabilities.
4) Both models are used to study different subjects, so there is no ground for comparison.
5) None of the above
