The answer is concentration gradient. Have a good day.
Answer:
At the bottom of the sequence
Explanation:
According to the "principle of superposition of strata", the oldest rocks are formed at the bottom of sedimentary rock sequences.
The oldest rock layer would contain the the oldest fossil. Weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition would bring all sediments which includes rock materials and remains of living organisms to the basin where they would be lithified to form sedimentary rocks. This makes the oldest fossil to be at the bottom of the sequence. As time progresses, the fossil sequence would continue to accumulate and young upwards as the strata becomes relatively younger. Also, we know that fossils succeed one another in a definite manner.
This why relative dating of rocks can be possible.
<u>Answer:</u>
Recent evidence suggest that feathers evolved from scales and suggest that 'feathers and pycnofibers' could be homologous.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- One of the major difficult issue related to bird evolution is the evolution of feathers.
- Feathers are considered as the most 'complex integumentary structures' which are found in vertebrates.
- Evolutionary developmental biology suggests that the 'planar scale structure' is been modified for developing into feathers by 'splitting' to form web like structures.
- Scales and Feathers consist of 'two distinct form of keratin' so it was thought that 'each type was exclusive skin structure' but recent study suggests that they are developmental expressions of same skin structures.
A karyotype shows the _46_ chromosomes sorted and isolated from a cell in _Metaphase_
The right answer is B.
The answer B is the only proposition which specified at which stage the event must occur, in fact, the meiosis.
Meiosis is a characteristic division of reproductive cells that can generate gametes to form new species (desendence). So if a mutation occurs at this time (such as recombinations) it will inevitably be inherited.
