Answer:
In addition to biology, evidence drawn from many different disciplines, including chemistry, geology, and mathematics, supports models of the origin of life on Earth. In order to determine when the first forms of life likely formed, the rate of radioactive decay can be used to determine the age of the oldest rocks (see optional problems C and D, below) exposed on Earth’s surface. These are found to be approximately 3.5 billion years old. The age of rocks can be correlated to fossils of the earliest forms of life. A. The graph compares times of divergence from the last common ancestor based on the fossil record with a "molecular time" constructed by comparing sequences of conserved proteins to determine a mutation rate (after Hedges and Kumar, Trends in Genetics, 2003). Explain how such a molecular clock could be refined to infer time or the evolution of prokaryotes. B. Using a molecular clock constructed from 32 conserved proteins, Hedges and colleagues (Battistuzzi et al., BMC Evol. Biol. 2004) estimated the times during which key biological processes evolved. A diagram based on their work is shown. Connect the time of the origin of life inferred from this diagram with the age of the oldest fossil stromatolites and the age of the oldest exposed rock to show how evidence from different scientific disciplines provides support for the concept of evolution. Evaluate the legitimacy of claims drawn from these different disciplines (biology, geology, and mathematics) regarding the origin of life on Earth. The oldest known rocks are exposed at three locations: Greenland, Australia, and Swaziland. The following application of mathematical methods provides essential evidence of the minimum age of Earth.
Explanation:
Explanation:
Temprature:the body must maintain a relatively constant temperature if it gets to hot the body employees vasodilation to cool down this delites the blood vessels allowing more heat to escape from them through the skin
Glucose: the body must regulate glucose levels to stay healthy. When glucose levels become to high the body realeases a hormone called an insulinwhen they become to low the body converts the glocogenin the blood to glucose
Toxins :in the blood can distrupt the body's homeostasis thus it signals the urinary system to ensure that the toxins are excreated
Photosynthesis reverses the biochemical pathways of respiration.
Scientists use biotechnology to create all of the following except waste products. The correct answer is D.
