Sequence the following species divergence points from oldest to most recent using principles of molecular clocks: -Two species of chameleons with genes that differ in 2% of nucleotides and have a substitution rate of 1% per 200,000 years. -Two species of plants have genes that differ in 5% of nucleotides and have a substitution rate of 2.5% per 300,000 years. -Ancestors of chimpanzees and humans diverged. -550,000 years ago -Two different species of fungi have genes that differ in 4.5% of their nucleotides, and they have a substitution rate of 1% per 350,000 years.

From bottom to top will be the proper sequence. i.e. The E will be the oldest, followed by D—C—B—A.

In biology, what are nucleotides?

What are nucleotides and what do they do?

The building blocks of DNA and RNA are nucleotides. They have genetic material in them. As coenzymes, nucleotides are necessary for enzymes to catalyze various biological processes. In our bodies, energy is stored as ATP.
