The correct answer is - B. feathered.
The primitive mammals were very small (with a couple of exceptions), rodent-like, also very often described as shrew-like. They were feeding with plants, as well as with insects and the occasional egg. Most of them were night creatures, and they were living in the shadow of the much bigger dinosaurs.
So, they were small, furry, rodent-like, night-dwellers, but there isn't a single evidence that any of the primitive mammals, or any mammal whatsoever, had feathers.
The correct answers are carbon dating. Carbon or radiocarbon dating is a method that uses a mathematical equation and the half-life of decay to determine the exact date of a fossil. Carbon dating is the method that has the determination of the age of an organic matter.
Answer:
B) The mass of the reactants equals the mass of the products,
Explanation:
Given that the reaction is balanced, the mass of the reactants must equal to the mass of the products.
We know this by virtue of the law of conservation of mass.
The law of conservation of mass states that "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed but atoms are rearranged".
Therefore, if the reaction is chemically balanced, the mass of reactants must be the same as the mass of the products in the reaction.
The second choice is the right one.
In spherocytosis, there is a defect in the membrane proteins of the red blood cells, specifically ankyrin and spectrin. These membrane proteins contribute to the biconcave shape of red blood cells therefore the loss of these proteins will lead the red blood cells to lose its biconcave shape--leading to abnormally shaped red blood cells (spheres) hence the name. This can lead to premature destruction of red blood cells and jaundice due to hyperbilirubinemia. Spherocytes do not hold oxygen and carbon dioxide well as spherocytes have a decreased surface area.
