Punctuated equilibrium is defined as a theory in the evolutionary biology in which it states that when one specie appears in the fossil record they will become stable, and that it will only show little evolutionary change for most of their geological history. Therefore, the option that cannot be the result of punctuated equilibrium is extinction and coevolution. The correct answer is option A.

Copper is a metal commonly used for electrical wiring in houses. Which metal conducts electricity better than copper at 20°C?

jek_recluse [69]

The correct answer is silver metal.
Conductivity measures the ability of a material or a metal to transmit energy, conductivity may be electrical, thermal or acoustical conductivity. The most electrical conductive element is silver, followed by copper and Gold. Silver also has the highest thermal conductivity as compare to any element. However, copper and Gold are more often used in electrical applications since copper is less expensive and gold has a much higher corrosion resistance.

Which term describes the number of crests that pass a point in a given amount of time

joja [24]

The term is frequency.

The frequency is the number of vibrations per unit of time or the number of waves that passes a point per unit of time.

Every crest (and every trough) represents a pass of the wave so you can count the number of crests in an intervavl of time to find the frequency as the number of crests divided by the time elapsed.

Why are elements important

Bond [772]

Answer: Scientists believe that about 25 of the known elements are essential to life. Just four of these – carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen– make up about 96% of the human body. Six common elements that are important in living things are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus. These large molecules make up the structures of cells and carry out many many processes essential to life.
