Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

An anticline is defined as a structural trap that is the arch-like shape and are usually formed due to the compressional stress. In an anticline, the older rocks are present towards its interior and the younger rocks are formed towards the exterior.

The anticlines have resulted from previously existed horizontal rock layers that undergo compressional stress. They can be identified by the orientation of their fold limbs as the limbs dip away from the hinge of the fold.

These anticlines have great importance in the field of geology as these are the structures in which the oil and natural gas are being trapped.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

I) predict which of the liquids would cause the largest decrease in mass of potato stick
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

1 mol per dm3 sodium chloride solution

Explanation:

The liquid that would cause the largest decrease in the mass of the potato stick would be the one with  <u>1 mole per dm3 sodium chloride solution.</u>

<em>The water potential of a solution depends on the molarity of the solution, the higher the molarity, the lower the water potential and vice versa. Hence, a solution with higher molarity has the tendency to osmotically draw more water from the potato stick than a solution with lower molarity.</em>

Therefore, the potato stick will have the largest decrease in mass in 1 mol per dm3 sodium chloride when compared to the 0.5 and 0.1 mole per dm3 solutions.

Snakes and lizards are reptiles. Both organisms have pelvic organs, even though snakes don’t have hind legs. What are the best e
dusya [7]

Answer:

Option B, Snakes and lizards share a common ancestor.

Explanation:

From the description provided, it is clear that both the lizard and snake (including pythons) have evolved from the same ancestors which had hind legs. Since both the organism (i.e lizard and snake) underwent evolution (differently) for million of years such that the hind legs in lizard are visible and used even today but the hind legs in snakes are buried in  muscles toward their tail ends and are not used. Such features which are not used at all or are poorly used are called as vestigial organs.

Hence, option B is correct
