What do you call a snake with no backbone?​

Geography
1 answer:
Andru [333]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

(cause they are so flexible), snakes actually do have bones.  Animals with bones are know as vertebrates -- snakes are vertebrates.

A snake's backbone is made up of many vertebrae attached to ribs.  Humans have approximately 33 vertebrae and 24 ribs.  Snakes have between 200-400 vertebrae with as many ribs attached! That is what makes them so flexible and helps them move along!

All those bones and the strong muscles protect the internal organs.  The throat of the snake takes up the front one-third of the body.  It leads to a really long stomach, which, like the throat, will stretch to the size of whatever the snake is eating.

Why doesn’t radiometric dating of basalt on the ocean floor provide us with an absolute age for the planet earth?
Luda [366]

Answer:

Radiometric dating of basalt on the ocean floor provide us with an absolute age for the planet earth because the oceanic crust is recycled too frequently at subduction zones,

Explanation:

Radiometric dating of basalt  on the ocean floor can not provide us the absolute age of the planet earth due to the subduction. In the process of subduction oceanic plate went below the continental plate as it is less denser. It then melts there and its recycling takes place frequently. So the radiometric dating of basalt on oceanic plate can not provide us the true information regarding the age of the earth.

Scientists believe that earth and the other plants formed
topjm [15]

The correct answer is - from solar nebula.

The Earth and the other planets in the Solar System are thought to have formed from solar nebula. This solar nebula is believed to have been a left over from the Sun's formation, being consisted of gas and dust in a disc-shape. The material in this disc-shaped gas and dust started to merge gradually, thus little by little forming bigger and bigger objects, and as the objects were getting bigger they had bigger gravitational pull so more and more material was attracted toward them. Because of the very big gravitational pull of the Sun these objects were not able to wander into the space but were instead kept close to the Sun. Because of the orbiting around the Sun, they all started to take a rounded shape. Some planets as the Earth, Venus, Mars, and Mercury became terrestrial planets, while the likes of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune became gas giants.
