Answer:
<em><u>There are two important types of genetic mechanisms that can give rise to antibiotic resistance: mutation and acquisition of new genetic material. In the case of mutation, the rate at which resistance develops can be attributed to the rate at which bacteria mutate.</u></em>
Hi there!
In order to do fossil comparative anatomy and branching diagrams to explain the evolution of organism, scientists use <u>radiocarbonation </u><u>method</u>.
Explanation:
Carbon-14 can combine with oxygen in the atmosphere to create carbon dioxide, which is then absorbed by plants and makes its way through the food chain. The amount of carbon-14 in living plants and animals matches the amount in the atmosphere, but when plants and animals die, they no longer absorb carbon-14.
Because radiocarbon has a known rate of decay, the scientists can now determine about how long it has been since the plant or animal was alive. <u>The lower the amount of radiocarbon, the older the object.</u>
(Sometimes, C-12 is also used)
