Answer;

2) the rate at which changes occur in a type of molecule

Explanation;

The molecular clock is figurative term for a technique that uses the mutation rate of biomolecules to deduce the time in prehistory when two or more life forms diverged.

Scientists can use relaxed-clock methods to deal with variation in the rate of the molecular clock. By measuring the patterns of evolutionary rate variation among organisms, they can also gain valuable insight into the biological processes that determine how quickly the molecular clock ticks.

Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus. Eukaryotes can be single-celled or multi-celled, such as you, me, plants, fungi, and insects. Bacteria are an example of prokaryotes. Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelle.

Does this mechanism produce a change in individuals or populations? Explain

<h2>Answer:</h2>

mechanism: the process of evoluton .

Evolution is the process by which veriety of modern organisms have descended from ancient ancestors. Evolution is responsible for both the remarkable similarities of all 0rganisms and the amazing diversity of that organisms but exactly how does it work? Fundamental of the process of evolution is genetic variation upon which selective forces can act in order for evolution to occur.

Examines the mechanisms of evolution focusing on:

•Decent : the genetic differences that are heritable and passed on to the next generation successfully.

• mechanisms of change: Mutation, migration (gene flow), genetic drift, and natural selection are act as mechanism of change .

• The random nature of genetic drift and their effects .

• How variation, differential reproduction, and heredity result in evolution natural selection .

• How different species can affect each other's evolution through co-evolution.

All of these mechanisms can cause changes in the frequencies of genes produce change in in populations, and so all of them are mechanisms of evolutionary change. However, natural selection and genetic drift (genetic flow) cannot operate unless there is genetic variation among organisms.
