Answer: The answer is that the deposition of sediments initially extends laterally in all the directions, laterally continuous which is known as the law of original lateral continuity.

Layers of sediments do not extend indefinitely, the limits can be recognized and are controlled by the shape and size of the sedimentary basin.

The sediments when reaches into the water it lies flat in all the directions, until it runs out of the material and pinches off or it hits the barrier.

jeyben [28]

Question:All known organisms use genetic information to produce protein molecules via the same genetic code. This finding strongly supports the hypothesis that __________.

a) the earliest macromolecules probably arose when lightning struck an oxygen-free atmosphere

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

c) the genetic code readily evolves by natural selection

d) there's only one possible way to encode information in a macromolecule

Answer:

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

Explanation:

Protein synthesis occurs when the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA is read in the form of genetic codes. A specific genetic code specifies the same amino acid in all living beings. For example, the code "UUU" codes for phenylalanine in all the living beings irrespective of their species. This suggests that all the life forms have originated from one or few common ancestors and the genetic code has been preserved during the course of evolution of various species.

What happens to a cell when immersed in a beaker of distilled water?
stich3 [128]
You haven't specified if which type of cell you are referring to. There are many types of cells and each cell would have different reactions when immersed in a beaker of distilled water. So let us take for example, the red blood cell. A distilled water is hypotonic compared to the solution contained within the cells' membranes. Therefore, t<span>he distilled water will diffuse into the red blood cells and cause them to burst. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Why do we group artworks with similar characteristics into periods or styles?
fgiga [73]
We group artworks with similar characteristics into periods or styles because it is easiest to do it that way - this way we can find common characteristics in these literary/artistic eras, and name them. For example, the Renaissance had a distinct style, which differs greatly from that of Romanticism.

.Explicati de ce algele pluricelulare au culoarea rosie,verde respectiv bruna ?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Due to different pigments.

Explanation:

The multicellular algae are red, green and brown because of the presence of pigments. The red algae are red in colour because of the presence of the phycoerythrin which is a type of pigment. This pigment reflects red light due to already presence in its body and absorbs blue light that is necessary for photosynthesis process. The brown algae contain fucoxanthin pigment and green algae contain xanthophylls pigments that are responsible for its colour so we can conclude that these different types of pigments are responsible for the different colour of algae.
