Answer: 3.72 M
Explanation:
Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:
where,
k = rate constant = 
t = age of sample = 15.0 minutes
a = let initial amount of the reactant = 10.0 M
a - x = amount left after decay process = ?
The concentration of 
in a solution after 15.0 minutes have passed is 3.72 M

<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.

The correct answer is False
B. the tilt of the Earth on it's axis
The moon affects the tides by it's gravitational pull on Earth. So the moon has no affect on the earth's seasons. The distance from earth from the sun only affects the ability of Earth to sustain liquid water because earth is in something scientists like to call the "Goldilocks Zone" This has no affect on the seasons. However, the angle at which the sun's light hit the earth does effect seasonal changes and it's tilt does change.
