<u>Answer:</u>
<em>In highly diverged lineages, the substitutions process will occur at sites that have been substituted previously</em>.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Molecular clock uses the mutation rate to reduce the time in prehistory when the life forms are diverged. <em>The molecular clock uses the sequence of amino acids and nucleotide sequence for the DNA.</em>
This clock does not measure any time but the number of mutations, and other changes over certain time. <em>Sometimes its useful property might be limited due to the highly diverged lineages.</em>
Seed plants have an evolutionary advantage for several reasons. For one, the seeds can disperse easily. Furthermore, seeds can time their germination. For example, some seeds only germinate when they experience a period of being frozen.
There are three ways in which exogenous dna can be
introduced into a bacterial genome. These are; transduction, transformation and
conjugation. Transduction is the introduction of exogenous material into bacteria
by viruses; conjugation is exchange of genetic material between bacteria sexual
through reproduction; while transformation
is uptake of exogenous dna by bacteria, from its surrounding, through the
bacterial membrane.
Answer: Lipids
Explanation: The ratio of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (lipids) determines the fluidity in the membrane at cold temperature.
