Which hypothesis states that the moon originally broke away from Earth during its early formation?

PolarNik [594]3 years ago

the answer D. Giant impact hypothesis or large impact hypothesis

The origin of the Moon refers to several explanations regarding the formation process of the Moon, Earth's natural satellite. Theory The large collision hypothesis is the best-known theory regarding the origin of the moon.

<h2>Further explanation </h2>

The big collision hypothesis theory states that the Moon was formed from debris left over from a collision between Earth and an object the size of the planet Mars, about 4.5 billion years ago. The object that crashed into the Earth is often called Theia taken from the Greek Titan myth, which is the mother of Selene, the goddess of the Moon.

Other hypotheses about the origin of the moon:

  • Catching Hypothesis. This hypothesis says that the Moon is an object captured by the Earth.
  • Cleavage Hypothesis. This hypothesis says, in the old days, the Earth was spinning very quickly throwing some of its mass.
  • Accretion Hypothesis. This hypothesis says that the Earth and the Moon formed at the same time as a double system of ancient accretion disks in the Solar System.
  • The Georeactor Explosion Hypothesis. Another more radical hypothesis was published in 2010, saying that the Moon might have been created by a georeactor explosion located along the boundary of the mantle's core in the rapidly rotating equatorial plane of the Earth. This hypothesis can explain the similarity of the composition of the Earth and the Moon.

____is the cells way of converting food molecules into a form useful to the cell.
enyata [817]

Answer:

Respiration

Explanation:

cross off Photosynthesis because that is specifically for plants. Diffusion is when molecules move from high concentration to low concentrations. Osmosis helps transport water across the cell.

By process of reduction you can figure it out, but here is what cellular respiration is in it's basics so you can remember in the future. Cellular Respiration is just the process that takes place in cells to convert Chemical Energy from nutrients and turn it into ATP, then releases waste.

Vertical or longitudinal is cutting in the vertical plane. The cut would look like ( | )

There is also coronal cuts which were a cut with direction from front to back.

How could comparing amino acid sequences support the theory of evolution
AlladinOne [14]

Answer: Similarities in amino acid sequence strongly suggest common ancestry

Explanation:

The chemical make-up and biochemical process of all organisms are as very similar. For example, all organisms

- are build up of the same types of complex molecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins (polymers of amino acids) and nucleic acids

This similarity strongly suggest common ancestry for all organisms, thus leading to evolution of individual species

Tay–Sachs disease is an autosomal recessive disorder. Homozygous recessive individuals lack a key enzyme called hexosaminidase A
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

0.033

Explanation:

Tay–Sachs disease is an autosomal recessive disorder. The possible genotypes and phenotypes are:

  • TT = normal
  • Tt = carrier
  • tt = Tay-Sachs disease

I will use <em>p </em>to call the frequency of the dominant <em>T</em> allele, and <em>q</em> the frequency of the recessive <em>t</em> allele.

If the population is in equilibrium, the frequency of the tt genotype is q².

q^2 = 1/3600\\\\q=\sqrt{1/3600} \\\\q=1/60=0.017\\\\and\\p + q = 1\\p=1-q\\p=0.983

The frequency of the Tt genotype is 2pq.

2pq= 2*0.983*0.017\\2pq=0.033

The Tay–Sachs carrier frequency will be 0.033

A disease breaks out among sheep in California. A scientist takes blood from the sheep and grows a previously unknown organism.
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Koch's postulates".

Explanation:

The missing options of this question are:

a) spontaneous generation

b) Koch's postulates

c) epidemiology

d) vaccination

The correct answer is option b) "Koch's postulates".

Koch's postulates propose four criteria used to establish that a pathogen is responsible for a disease. In his famous experiments, Robert Koch was able to prove that <em>Bacillus anthracis</em> is the cause of anthrax by injecting to a mouse an isolated culture from the blood of an injected sheep. The scenario established in the question is very similar to anthrax, and the scientific approach to look for the pathogen of the disease is following the principles of Koch's postulates.
