The molecular clock is a 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. The biomolecular data used for such calculations are usually nucleotide sequences for DNA or amino acid sequences for proteins.
Explanation:
Answer:
Human evolution in the hominid family occurred faster than between Chimpanzees and gorillas. Neutral mutations may result in sequence divergence between organisms that are structurally similar (in this case, chimpanzees and gorillas)
Explanation:
Human and chimpanzee share higher sequence identity than predicted in the hominid family since observed mutations are necessarily associated with functional divergence
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>Polymers of amino acids can be both fibrous as well as globular protein. Hemoglobin is a globular but the collagen is the fibrous protein both being the amino acids.</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
- <em>Soluble in water: </em>globular protein is soluble in water.
- <em>intermediate filaments:</em> fibrous protein
- <em>Insoluble in water:</em> fibrous protein is insoluble in water.
- <em>function as structural proteins in the cell:</em> fibrous protein.
- <em>some function as enzymes: </em>globular protein.
- <em>structure is somewhat spherical;</em> globular protein.
- <em>structure is rod-like:</em> fibrous protein
