<u>-to determine how long ago two species of animals shared an ancestor</u>
<u></u>
The molecular lock describes a method which utilizes mutation rates for DNA over time, to determine the divergence of two species sharing common ancestry,due to evolution. Along with genetic drift, selective mating and natural selection, evolution may occur within populations due to spontaneous heritable changes to DNA, called mutations, over time.
Further Explanation:
During reproduction, other events, such as crossing over during mitosis and meiosis, mutations lead to increases in genetic variation. This variation refers to the genetic characteristics present within a species. Mutations may be either beneficial or deleterious; they are maintained within cells, as they form new traits called alleles. Beneficial mutations may confer traits that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring a protective advantage- these phenotypic differences between organisms are called adaptations.
Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA, which makes up the genotype, is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins which make up the phenotype of an organism. Mutations in DNA sequences affect the corresponding mRNA and thus the protein encoded.

One of the basic building blocks of matter, which cannot be broken down by chemical means is an element.
The first chemical element is hydrogen (atomic number is 1) and the last is oganesson (atomic number is 118).
Elements are scheduled in Periodic table, ordered by their atomic number.
Other example, krypton is a chemical element with symbol Kr and atomic number 36.
Krypton has 36 electron and 36. It is noble gas (group 18).
Noble gases are in group 18: helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn). They have very low chemical reactivity.

Radiant energy or electrical energy
Answer:
its 0.163 g
Explanation:
From the total pressure and the vapour pressure of water we can calculate the partial pressure of O2
PO 2 =P t −P H 2 O
= 760 − 22.4
= 737.6 mmHg
From the ideal gas equation we write.
W= RT/PVM = (0.0821Latm/Kmol)(273+24)K(0.974atm)(0.128L)(32.0g/mol/) =0.163g
