How do ice cores, tree rings & index fossils provide valuable information about the past?

Tree rings are annual growth rings and their thickness indicates how growing conditions were for that year. Index fossils in their type and frequency are indicative of the environment that those organisms grew in and how prolific life was then in that environment. Ice cores drilled through glaciers and ice sheets like in Antarctica tell us about such things as the concentration of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (as bubbles in the ice layers) and also about climatic  conditions in glacial and interglacial periods.

Select the correct answer.
Oduvanchick [21]
The answer is C.

The man’s genotype must be AB. The woman’s genotype can be either BB or BO as both correspond to a blood type (which is a phenotype) of B.

Each parent passes on one allele. The man can contribute A or B and the woman can contribute B or O.

The possible genotype combinations are therefore AB, AO, BB, and BO. These correspond to the phenotypes AB, A, B, and B.

What would happen if our lungs where made up of only one big alveoli?
Dimas [21]

The process of respiration system would not function well if the lungs was made up of only one big alveoli.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The main role of alveoli is to help the lungs to breath, for ventilation, diffusion and perfusion. The process of respiration system would not function well if the lungs was made up of only one big alveoli.

Alveoli are tiny to help the flow of oxygen and carbon dioxide, it helps the oxygen flow into the lungs and remove the carbon dioxide. If the alveoli is just one and big, then it would be hard to flow the oxygen through lungs and remove the carbon dioxide.

Therefore, it is good to have many tiny alveoli than one big one or the rib cage  that protect the lungs could go through some damages.

Explain how breast-cancer genes are still present in the population, despite cancer-related surgeries and deaths.
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

What are so called breast-cancer genes, are mutations in two genes: BRCA1 (BReast CAncer gene one) and BRCA2 (BReast CAncer gene two), and are also associated with ovaric cancer. According to the question, these genes are present in the popolation despite surgeries and deaths, and asks why. Surgeries does not eliminate the genes, they eliminate the tumors, and people can still reproduce after that. And also, most people already had offspring before they know they have cancer, so they are inheriting the mutations on the genes anyway.
