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).

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "motor unit - motor neuron".

Explanation:

Motor unit and motor neuron are related terms, however they could not be used interchangeably because a motor unit is not comprised only of a motor neuron. A motor unit is made of a motor neuron, skeletal muscle fibers and neuron's axonal terminals. Therefore motor unit is a more broadly term, and is referred to the units that coordinate the contractions of single muscles.
