Answer: Higher infant mortality rates cause higher fertility rates.

Explanation:

Countries with high infant mortality rates are usually countries where families rely on children to help out the family. High infant mortality rates and a need for children means that those people will continue to try to have children until they have some that survive. If more children die, and people need to have more children, there will be a higher fertility rate.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

mutation rates can be used to design molecular clocks in order to estimate divergence times among species  

Explanation:

In evolutionary biology, the substitution rates (also known as mutation rates) are used for the development of 'molecular clocks' which allow estimating the divergence times among species or among taxonomic groups. Molecular clocks can be designed by estimating the divergence rate of nucleotide sequences (either DNA or RNA) and amino acid (protein) sequences. These substitution rates can also be used to track how quickly viruses evolve (for example, in a pandemic situation).
