The bottom line of all life is the DNA... Previously, we compared fossils and created evolutionary trees on the basis of structure and similarity. However, this can just be a co-incidence.
Now we can compare molecular data, DNA and protein sequences and obtain the similarity and thereby predict, why our brothers in the evolutionary tree are different than us.

What are the sab-branches of evolutionary biology?
Molecular evolutionary biology, Population genetics, Genome studies of species, Fossil studies
What are molecule clocks?
Molecular Clocks- are models that use mutation rates to measure evolutionary time.
How does evolutionary biology molecular biology influence classification?
Molecular evidence can prove or disprove some fylogenetic relations between organisms that were previously based on morphologic aspects or ecologic aspects.

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.

Dna changes in important genes
How does evolutionary biology molecular biology influence classification?
Molecular evidence can prove or disprove some fylogenetic relations between organisms that were previously based on morphologic aspects or ecologic aspects.
