Was the digital clock invented after the pendulum clock?

Oh yes. pendulum Clocks rely on mechanics. Digital Clocks rely on Electronics. And we didn't learn to use Electronics until way later than mechanics.


Why do different genes have a different molecular clock rate according to the neutral theory of molecular evolution?

Different genes have different molecular clock rates due to the amount of Cytoplasmic Dyruduemion the genes contain. The more Cytoplasmic Dyruduemion the genes have, the slower the molecular clock rate, according to the neutral theory of molecular evolution.

What does a molecular clock measure.?

A molecular clock measures the rate at which genetic mutations accumulate in a species over time. By comparing differences in genetic sequences, scientists can estimate how long ago different species diverged from a common ancestor.


What does not affect the rate of mutation is a molecular clock?

A molecular clock is a method used to estimate the time of evolutionary events based on the rate of molecular changes, particularly in DNA sequences. While it provides insights into the timing of divergence between species, it does not influence the actual rate of mutation, which is determined by factors such as environmental influences, replication errors, and DNA repair mechanisms. Thus, the molecular clock is a tool for interpreting mutation rates rather than a factor that affects them.
