Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

Fossils are defined as the dead residues of ancient flora and fauna that are buried millions of years ago. They are found to be embedded in the sedimentary rocks. They are useful in determining the relative age of a rock or fossil.

The type of fossil that forms depends on how the organisms have died and the conditions under which the dead organism was buried. The fossils are found as mold and cast, trace fossils and the fossil's true form. If the fossils marks its imprints on the soft sediments then the molds are formed and cast forms when the mineralised sediments gives the shape of the exact fossil by filling up the mold. Trace fossils are formed when the organisms leaves an imprint while they move from one place to another. This is how the fossils and their types are determined.

Thus, the conditions under which these fossils are died and buried is necessary to understand and also these fossils are very important in the field of Paleontology as it helps in understanding the past environment, climate and the organism's food habitat.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

A. The conditions under which the organism died and how it was buried.



Reason for Answer: This is because fossils are used to determine the relative age of sedimentary rocks and are used to provide information on past climates, environments, and many more.

How does the ribosome know how to make the protein.?
alexdok [17]
According to google

So the ribosome moves along way and many tRNA molecule transport the correct amino acid to make the correct sequence which is to be formed and only stops when mRNA shows 'STOP' codon. So there is a chain of polypeptide which is synthesised by copying the DNA and this is how proteins are made.

and for clarification t-RNA is transfer RNA and m-RNA is messenger RNA

Greenhouse gases are measured by their ability to trap outgoing solar radiation and convert it to heat, warming the atmosphere.
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and certain synthetic chemicals, trap some of the Earth's outgoing energy, thus retaining heat in the atmosphere. This heat trapping causes changes in the radiative balance of the Earth—the balance between energy received from the sun and emitted from Earth—that alter climate and weather patterns at global and regional scales.

Multiple lines of evidence confirm that human activities are the primary cause of the global warming of the past 50 years.1 Natural factors, such as variations in the sun's output, volcanic activity, the Earth's orbit, the carbon cycle, and others, also affect Earth's radiative balance. However, beginning in the late 1700s, the net global effect of human activities has been a continual increase in greenhouse gas concentrations.

This change in concentrations causes warming and is affecting various aspects of climate, including surface air and ocean temperatures, precipitation, and sea levels. Human health, agriculture, water resources, forests, wildlife, and coastal areas are all vulnerable to climate change.

Many greenhouse gases are extremely long-lived in the atmosphere, with some remaining airborne for tens to hundreds of years after being released. These long-lived greenhouse gases become globally mixed in the atmosphere and their concentrations reflect past and recent contributions from emissions sources worldwide. Others, like tropospheric ozone, have a relatively short lifetime in the atmosphere.
