<span>Molecular clock is a scale which uses a technique whereby evolutionary time for different life forms is deduced from the mutation rate of biomolecules. Biomolecular data used for calculations in order to come up with the prehistoric time scale normally uses nucleotide sequences for DNA or amino acid sequences for proteins.
Hence, in order to develop a molecular clock, one would need: a sequence of molecules, the rate at which changes occur in a type of molecule and how much total change has occurred in a type of molecule from different species.</span>
<h3>Answer:</h3>
Convection currents in the mantle
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Our current laws of Physics recognize that heat is transferred by one of ...
- conduction
- convection
- radiation.
Radiation is a mechanism for transferring heat through space. That mechanism doesn't really apply inside the "solid" Earth. While a certain amount of heat is transferred by conduction, the rock making up the bulk of the Earth is a poor conductor of heat.
The majority of the heat is transferred by the hot rock physically moving from the center of the earth toward the surface in the process called convection.
