Explain why mitochondrial DNA mutates at a faster rate then our DNA

Explanation:

The mutation rate in mtDNA is ten times higher than in nuclear DNA because mtDNA are subject to damage from reactive oxygen molecules released as a byproduct during OXPHOS. In addition, the mtDNA also lacks the DNA repair mechanisms found in the nucleus.

acceleration= v2-v1/t so 8m/s-3m/s / 3s =to 8/3 or

2.67 m/s^2
