D. take advantage of known mutation rates to estimate... please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm studying this right and I would love to know if I'm wrong so I can know what's its not when I take my test, that's if this question on my test,but anyhow I still prefer to know

Molecular clocks B. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE FACT THAT ALL MUTATIONS HAPPEN AT A STEADY RATE.

The molecular clock is a technique used involving the mutation rate of biomolecules to deduce when in prehistoric times have two or more lifeforms diverged.

In a DNA double helix an adenine of one strand always pairs with a(n) _____ of the complementary strand, and a guanine of one st
notka56 [123]

Answer:

adenine pairs with Thymine  and guanine always pairs with cytosine respectively

Explanation:

In DNA nucleotide subunits, there are four nitrogenous bases:

  •    Adenine (A)
  •    Thymine (T)
  •    Cytosine (C)
  •    Guanine (G)

Each of these bases can be divided into two categories: purine bases and pyrimidine bases.

Adenine and guanine are examples of purine bases. This means their structure is a nitrogen-containing six atom ring joined with a nitrogen-containing five atom ring that share two atoms to combine the two rings.

Thymine and cytosine are examples of pyrimidine bases.

Note that  RNA replaces thymine with a different pyrimidine base called uracil (U).

The complementary base pairing rule, Chargaff's rule states that DNA base pairs are always adenine with thymine (A-T) and cytosine with guanine (C-G). A purine always pairs with a pyrimidine and vice versa. However, A doesn't pair with C, despite that being a purine and a pyrimidine.
