<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.

Answer: made up of an infinite number of indestructible atoms in unpredictable motion.
Answer:
The answer is IONIC BOND
Explanation:
Steroidogenic acute regulatory, (StAR) protein is a type of globular protein, which allows it act as an active catalyst on substrates. Because the substrates on which enzymes act usually have higher molecular weights of several hundred as compared to the enzymes, only a fraction of the enzyme's surface is in contact with the substrate. This region of contact called the <em>active site</em>, is as a result of the protein folding itself into a tertiary structure.
Once the correct substrate has bound at the active site of the enzyme, an enzyme-substrate complex is created. The substrate is usually held in the complex by combinations of electrical attraction, hydrophobic repulsion, or hydrogen bonding between and from the amino acid; the strongest of which is the ionic/electrostatic bonding due to larger amount of ionic "R" groups in the protein structure.
So whilst all these inter-molecular interactions are possible, the strongest would be <u>ionic bond.</u>
Answer:
Option 1, Cl is reduced and gains electrons
Explanation:
HClO₃ → HClO₂
In HClO₃, chlorine acts with +5 in the oxidation state
In HClO₂,, chlorine acts with +3 in the oxidation state.
The state has been reducted, so the Cl has been reduced. As it was reduced, it means that has won e⁻, in this case 2
Cl⁻⁵ → Cl⁻³ + 2e⁻
Answer:
223.5 g
Explanation:
The formula between the number of moles, mass and Mr can be used to convert moles to grams.
<em>Number of moles = mass ÷ Mr</em>
So, mass = number of moles × Mr
Mr of Li₂O = (6.9 × 2) + 16 = 29.8
∴ Mass = 7.5 × 29.8 = <u>223.5 g</u>
