<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.

To solve this we use the equation,
M1V1 = M2V2
where M1 is the concentration of the stock
solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of
the new solution and V2 is its volume.
65 x V1 = 2 x 200 L
V1 = 6.15 L

Explanation:you are seeing a lunar eclipse when the moon moves directly between the sun and the earth and casts a shadow. Hope this helps!
Answer:
0.9
Explanation:
The pka represents the force by which the molecules need to dissociate for the acids ,
Hence , lower the pka stronger will be the acid and that therefore will dissociate completely and vice versa , for a weak acid higher the pka .
And in case of a base , it will be completely reversed , lower pKa , weaker base ,
and higher pKa , stronger base .
From the data of the question ,
0.9 is the lowest value of the pKa , hence , weakest base .
Albinism is a recessive trait.
