How is relative dating of fossils different from absolute dating?

Biology
1 answer:
Doss [256]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Absolute dating is the actual date of the rock and can also been known as radioactive dating. Relative dating is using the rock layers and fossil records to determine the age of the rock, and it is not the actual age of the rock. :)

Explain why mutations may or may not affect phenotype
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mutations may or may not affect the phenotype because they can occur in coding or non coding areas of the DNA. If they occur in coding areas of the DNA, the protein that is coded in that part could be processed incompletely or have a different amino-acid in some part of its structure, this would affect the phenotype. If they occur in non coding areas, this would have no effect on the phenotype.

Why might a phylogeny based only on molecular data show a different pattern of relationships than a phylogeny of the same taxa b
Kitty [74]

A phylogeny of the same taxa based only on morphological traits:

Some highly conserved genetic sequences can result in unrelated species appearing closely related in a molecular phylogeny, and not reflect the same pattern as the morphologic phylogeny.

Gene sequence changes may not result in morphological changes.

Gene sequences always provide more data than morphological traits.

Morphological analyses always provide more data because each morphological trait is the result of the expression of many genes.

The molecular data may be based on the analysis of introns, which aren't expressed and don't contribute to the evolutionary history of a group of taxa.

Why is molecular data more accurate?

Phylogenetic trees reconstructed from molecular sequences are often considered more reliable than those reconstructed from morphological characters, in part because convergent evolution, which confounds phylogenetic reconstruction, is believed to be rarer for molecular sequences than for morphologies
