By comparing fossils of different primate species, scientists can study how different species have diversified over time.<span> Almost all sediment is either laid down horizontally in bodies of water like the oceans, or on land on the margins of streams and rivers. Each time a new layer of sediment is deposited it is laid down horizontally on top of an older layer. With this events, Geologists can established a set of principles that can be applied to sediments and to determine how these features evolved through time.</span>

If enough changes occur in the gene pool of a species, it is possible that a new species would be created.

lianna [129]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

A gene pool is the sum total of all the genes(sum of alleles)of a species and population at any given time is known as gene pool.

The new species are created in nature by four mechanisms such as geographic isolation (allopatric speciation), reproductive isolation (sympatric speciation), mating behaviour (parapatric speciation).

Due to any of these factors when population acquire unique changes in their genes and enough changes have been introduced in the gene pool of the population with time, two population become distinct from each other and not able to interbreed leads to the formation of new species.

Its minerals will have crystals.

Mice21 [21]

A crystal is any solid that has an organized structure. ... So it is a prerequisite to be a crystal in order to be a mineral. All minerals, therefore, form crystals. On the other hand, there are crystals that are not minerals, because they are not naturally occuring, or because they are not inorganic
