As the earth has active tectonics we know that rocks are recycled and the oldest rocks may therefore just be the oldest rocks that have not been recycled yet. We know the true age of the earth by looking at radioactive isotopes of things like spacedust and meteors that formed at the same time as the earth as they have not been affected by the tectonic process of recycling here on Earth.
Fishes and bottom dwelling worms cope with the fluctuating salinity within estuaries over the tidal cycle with the use of transport system such as active and passive transport.
<h3>How active and passive transport system are used?</h3>
In salty water, fish and other marine organisms used active transport in which energy is used to remove salts from the body of these marine organisms because excess salts are harmful for them.
So we can conclude that Fishes use transport system such as active and passive transport to cope with the fluctuation of salt concentration.

The main function of the respiratory system is to allow the exchange of gases between the atmosphere and the lungs.
Hence,the only structure that carries out this function is the alveoli as other structures such as the nose,trachea and pharynx transport gases to the alveoli just so that it can can out its function.
It’s called a solar system because solar means “relating to or determined by the sun” and system means “a set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network” and the solar system is a whole bunch of planets and other things that are related to the sun and working together.
