<u>-to determine how long ago two species of animals shared an ancestor</u>
<u></u>
The molecular lock describes a method which utilizes mutation rates for DNA over time, to determine the divergence of two species sharing common ancestry,due to evolution. Along with genetic drift, selective mating and natural selection, evolution may occur within populations due to spontaneous heritable changes to DNA, called mutations, over time.
Further Explanation:
During reproduction, other events, such as crossing over during mitosis and meiosis, mutations lead to increases in genetic variation. This variation refers to the genetic characteristics present within a species. Mutations may be either beneficial or deleterious; they are maintained within cells, as they form new traits called alleles. Beneficial mutations may confer traits that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring a protective advantage- these phenotypic differences between organisms are called adaptations.
Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA, which makes up the genotype, is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins which make up the phenotype of an organism. Mutations in DNA sequences affect the corresponding mRNA and thus the protein encoded.

CO2 and H2O are compounds hope this helped :)
Answer:
a . knowledge and existing theories .
b. falsifiable scope
<span>Forward & falling. Hope this helps!</span>
According to the balanced equation of the reaction:
2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O
So we can mention all as liters,
A) as we see that 2 liters of C2H2 react with 5 liters of oxygen to produce 4 liters of CO4 and 2 liters of H2O
So, when we have 75L of CO2
and when we have 2 L of C2H2 reacts and gives 4 L of CO2
2C2H2 → 4CO2
∴ The volume of C2H2 required is:
= 75L / 2
= 37.5 L
B) and, when we have 75 L of CO2
and 4CO2 → 2H2O
∴ the volume of H2O required is:
= 75 L /2
= 37.5 L
C) and from the balanced equation and by the same way:
when 5 liters O2 reacts to give 4 liters of CO2
and we have 75 L of CO2:
5 O2 → 4 CO2
?? ← 75 L
∴ the volume of O2 required is:
= 75 *(5/4)
= 93.75 L
D) about the using of the number of moles the answer is:
no, there is no need to find the number of moles as we called everything in the balanced equation by liters and use it as a liter unit to get the volume, without the need to get the number of moles.
