What is Kimuras Neutral Theory of Molecular Evolution?
Kimura (1968) • The vast majority of evolutionary changes at the molecular level are caused by random drift of selectively neutral mutants (not affecting fitness) ! The Molecular Clock.
What do you call someone who studies food science?
Molecular Chef
How and why do bats change their click rates?
they change their click rates by holding their breath until they sufficate and die so they can float up to heaven.
How do biologists estimate extinction rates?
Biologists estimate extinction rates in a great number of ways. One way is to document the decrease in population over time.
Advantage and disadvantage of asexual reprodution?
They have higher reproductive rates.
What do molecular clocks use to measure evolutionary time?
mutation rates
What molecule can bind to rubisco and inhibit carbon fixation rates?
Molecular oxygen (O2)
What are molecule clocks?
Molecular Clocks- are models that use mutation rates to measure evolutionary time.
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.
How do rates of mutation power molecular clocks?
The number of neutral mutations distinguishing two species enables measurement of the length of time since the species diverged from a common ancestor.

What is molecular distortion?
A short answer: molecular distortion is a change (reduction) of the molecular symmetry.
