Summary Introduction

To review:

The need for molecular techniques to provide evidence for the neutral theory of evolution.

Introduction:

Molecular techniques are those techniques, which involve the study, analysis, experimentation, or manipulation of genes at the molecular level. These molecules are RNA (ribonucleic acid), DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), and proteins.
