A molecular clock is a method used by researchers that uses mutation rates in DNA to estimate the length of time that two species have been evolving independently. This provides evidence of evolutionary descent because it can link to common ancestors.

Zara had a birthday and was able to choose a pet. The pet that she chose was a beautiful clownfish named Bozo, a common salt wat
White raven [17]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The advice I would give  to Zara would be that she should keep Bozo in a separate tank with common salt water away from the goldfish. Bozo is a salt water fish while the goldfish can only survive in freshwater.</em>

If Bozo is kept in a saltless water/freshwater tank with the goldfish, the water would be hypotonic to Bozo. Consequently, water will osmotically diffuse into the cells of Bozo, the cells would become turgid and lyse, and this would lead to the death of the fish.

If the goldfish is kept in the same salt water tank with Bozo, the salt water would be hypertonic to the goldfish. Consequently, water will osmotically diffuse out of the cells of the goldfish into the surrounding salt water, the cells of the goldfish would become flaccid, and this would lead to the death of the fish.
