when changes in a protein appear to accumulate at a constant rate over time is called option (c) i.e, Molecular clock.

<h3>What does molecular clock mean?</h3>

The term "molecular clock" refers to a method that estimates the time in prehistory when two or more life forms diverged by analyzing the mutation rate of biomolecules. Typically, nucleotide sequences for DNA, RNA, or amino acid sequences for proteins serve as the biomolecular data for these calculations.

Hedges, a biology professor at Penn State, claims that the molecular clock counts the mutations that accumulate through time in the gene sequences of various species rather than counting seconds, minutes, and hours.

Mutation and recombination, the two fundamental biological processes that give rise to all heritable variations, are the foundation of molecular clocks. Mutations are modifications to the genetic code of DNA, for as when the nucleotide Guanine (G) turns to Thymine (T).

Answer:

comparative anatomy:

compares the genomes of different organisms

compares the limbs of different organisms

molecular biology:

compares fossilized structures to living organisms

compares cells of organisms

EXPLANATION:

Comparative anatomy is the study of similarities and differences in the anatomy of different species.

Molecular Biology is the field of biology that studies the composition, structure and interactions of cellular molecules – such as nucleic acids and proteins – that carry out the biological processes essential for the cell's functions and maintenance.
