Claim: Whales evolved from land mammals to water mammals.

Evidence: The first whales evolved over 50 million years. One of the first whales, such as Pakicetus, were land animals with long skulls and carnivorous teeth, much like many adaptable land mammals back then and today.

Answer:

Either (1.) Fossils or (2) Radiometric dating.

Explanation:

Fossils are an obvious answer to this, but radiometric dating is the method most scientists use to find the age of rocks. Radioactive isotopes break down predictably, so the farther along this process is, the older the rock is.

The PCR (polymerase chain reaction) protocol that is currently used in laboratories was facilitated by the discovery of a bacter
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Because of the several steps with high temperatures and also (heavy ) changes in temperature.

Explanation:

PCR consists of a serie of 20–40 repeated temperature changes. Those series or cycles are also called thermal cycles.

The individual steps (common to most PCR methods) are as following:

→Denature template : 99 °C  for 2 minutes

→Anneal primers to template : 55 °C  for 2 minutes

→Extension of the primers by heat stable DNA polymerase :72 °C for 2 minutes

As we can notice, will in a relatively short time, different temperatures be used. It's important that the used polymerase will be functional at corresponding temperatures, as well as (heavy) temperature changes.

→ Since the bacteria Thermus aquaticus lives near thermal vents in the ocean floor and grows at temperatures of up to 98°C, it's used to corresponding temperatures.

If other enzymes will be used, i.e enzymes functional in lower temperatures (several)  steps will not continue or will not be executed properly. To avoid this it's important to use the best temperature resistant enzymes.
