Answer:

The answer to the question: A fossil is determined through radioactive dating to be 1.5 million years old. This is an example of, would be: A: Absolute dating.

Explanation:

In paleontology, there are two ways in which fossils can be dated. One, is the inaccurate one, called relative dating, in which other sources, most commonly rocks around the fossil, as well as other fossils called index fossils, are used to approximately date a target fossil. But the more accurate, and almost infalible one, is called, absolute dating. This one uses radioactive isotopes and their characteristics in rocks and in the fossil itself, to more accurately establish the age of the fossils. The technique measures these isotopes in the minerals and components in the rocks and fossils to determine date.

LaKeisha stepped on a piece of glass and quickly pulled her foot away from that sharp object. Which of the following are respons

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Motor nerves

Explanation:

Pulling the leg quickly from the sharp object is an example of reflex action. It includes sensory receptors, sensory neurons, interneurons, the control center (spinal cord), motor neurons and effector.

As soon as she steps on the glass piece, the receptors present in the skin of her foot sole sense it and send the information to the control center via sensory neurons. The spinal cord commands the muscles of the effector organ (leg) via motor neurons to move to step away from the glass piece.

Miles wants to write the equation for photosynthesis. The diagram below represents one of the molecules in the equation. mc016-1

kvv77 [185]

Answer: $C_6H_{12}O_6$

Explanation: Photosynthesis is a phenomenon in which green plants containing chlorophyll use sunlight as a source of energy to convert carbon dioxide and water to form glucose and oxygen.

Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae and certain bacteria to convert energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy in the form of glucose which is used a s a source of energy by many organisms.

The balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis is written as :

$6CO_2+6H_2O\overset{sunlight}\rightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2$
