How does the fossil record help scientists understand the process of evolution?

Biology
1 answer:
artcher [175]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Fossil records help provide clues to the history of Earth's organisms. They've have given scientists clues needed to determine a present day organism's ancestry by comparing them with fossils. Fossil records also show that life has evolved from simple to complex; for example, fossils deeper into the ground (older ones) are much more simple than the ones at the top (newer ones), again supporting the idea of evolution. Fossils additionally show us how behaviors have evolved, how long individuals lived, and how features evolved over time.

State two examples of situations where active transport occurs
Cloud [144]

When something needs to be transported against its concentration gradient, or a molecule is too big to simply diffuse through a membrane, active transport has to be used. So active transport requires energy (ATP).

Examples:

1. Antiport pumps: transport one substance in one direction while transporting another substance the other way. An example of this is the sodium-potassium pump.

2. Symport pumps - uses a substance that wants to move from an area of high concentration to low concentration and carries another substance against its concentration gradient. An example of this is the sodium-glucose transport protein

3. Endocytosis - large amounts of extra cellular fluid can be taken into a cell - needs ATP to bind proteins in the cell membrane and causes them to change their shape...which eventually causes the surrounding of the fluid to be brought in (a vesicle).

4.exocytosis - opposite of above

Where do trees get the matter with which they grow
andrezito [222]

Answer:

So where does the mass come from? The mass of a tree is primarily carbon. The carbon comes from carbon dioxide used during photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants convert the sun's energy into chemical energy which is captured within the bonds of carbon molecules built from atmospheric carbon dioxide and water.

A red blood cell has been placed into three different solutions. One solution is isotonic to the cell, one solution is hypotonic
Dmitry [639]

The type of solution in each beaker based on cell's reaction are :

  • Isotonic solution : Normal reaction
  • Hypotonic solution : The cell becomes turgid
  • Hypertonic solution : The cell becomes deformed

<h3>Matching each solution to the cell reaction </h3>

When the red blood cell is placed in an isotonic solution the solvent flows in and out of the blood cell at the same rate, when the cell is placed in a hypotonic solution the solvent flows into the cell at a faster rate causing the cell to swell ( becomes turgid ) also when the cell is placed in a hypertonic reaction the cell becomes deformed becomes it loses more water than it absorbs.

Hence we can conclude that The type of solution in each beaker based on cell's reaction are : Isotonic solution : Normal reaction, Hypotonic solution : The cell becomes turgid, Hypertonic solution : The cell becomes deformed
