Answer:
Correlation
Explanation:
Correlation simply means matching rocks or strata's of the same age. This rock units or sedimentary strata's may be matched from same region or even different continents.
In correlation the major task is to establish time equivalency of various rocks or sedimentary strata's.
In correlation of rock unit or sedimentary strata, Geologist looks at the physical continuity. For example a sedimentary strata from a region having a particular sequence of rock or sedimentary strata . That same pattern of sequence may be found in another region . With the similarity in the sequence stratigraphy ( sediment layering), Geologist can infer the similarity in age of both strata's.
Fossil contents present in different strata; if similar fossil contents found in different regions, geologist can determine the age similarities.
The first picture indicates strata correlation using fossil similarities while the second picture uses the physical continuity like lithology to correlates strata's
Answer:
[a] varies in its characteristics according to local environmental circumstances
[b] becomes common within a species through natural selection
[d] tends to promote the well being of an organism in its natural or social environment
Explanation:
The adaptive traits in the living organisms have a simple basic role, that is to make the organism better suited for survival in its environment. The adaptive traits come in all sorts of different shapes, be it some that are manifested in the physical appearance or in the behavior of the organisms. Adaptive traits can be increased speed, prolonged neck, living in a groups, developing thorns and many more. This type of traits occur when the organisms face increased competition or when the environment in which they live starts to change, so in order for them to survive, they start to develop traits that will make them better suited for the new conditions and more competitive. The main principle through which the adaptive traits are transferred and rapidly increase in a population is through natural selection, as the organisms choose the ones that have advantageous traits for their mates, while they live aside the others.
Glaciers shaped the landscape is the answer. Actually, in Nova Scotia near Halifax there is a glacial boulder or erratic of basalt which is deemed to come from about 130km away perhaps from the north or NW. Also, there are glacial striations there on the bedrock which can be used to determine the sense of the direction of flow of the ice. In New England, there are pro-glacial lakes. Both the Maritimes and New England were most likely covered by the Laurentide continental glaciation.
