I think it is fossil fuel .. might be wrong tho
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:
Acid rain refers to the rain which acidic in nature having a form of precipitation and elevated levels of hydrogen ions (low pH). The normal pH of rain is around 5.6
Rising concentration of Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) in atmosphere is one of the cause of acid rain. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) are released by vehicles, fossil-fuel power plants and oil refineries.
When a sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides released in air they mix with oxygen, water and other chemicals in the air and form sulfuric and nitric acids. sulfuric and nitric acids mix with precipitation and its pH level is about 5.2 or below.
Hence, rising concentration of SO2 And NO2x is one of the biggest reason of acid which damages agriculture, buildings and wildlife et-cetra.
