Ascientist discovers a new organism that is related to clownfish. what can the scientist discover by using molecular clocks? the date that the organism first appeared in the fossil record the age of the organism the amount of time that the two species have been evolving apart the number of years that fish have existed

The answer is the amount of time that the two species have been evolving apart.

Molecular clocks use rates of mutation to measure evolutionary time. This technique is based on the fact that mutations add up at a fairly constant rate in the DNA of species that evolved from a common ancestor. The more mutations that happened in each lineage, the greater is the differences between these lineages and vice versa. So, molecular clocks can tell the amount of time that new organism and clownfish have been evolving apart.

Answer would be C -  the amount of time that the two species have been evolving apart

there are mainly three domains in biological classification namely; archaea, bacteria, and eukarya.

archaea includes all the prokaryotic cells which are characterized by their lipid membranes. they have branched hydrocarbon which is attached to glycerol through an ether linkage.

bacteria includes all the prokaryotic cells, the cell membrane of which are made up of the unbranched fatty acid chain. in addition, they are attached to glycerol through an ester bond.

eukarya includes all the eukaryotic cells, that is, the cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound cell organelles.

they can be autotrophic as well as heterotrophic, unicellular as well as multicellular

they include kingdoms like protista, plantae, animalia, fungi et cetera.
