What is the difference between arbitrary and natural levels? Why do these matter? (4) how do archaeologists recover the smallest
Vlada [557]

Arbitrary level refers to the fundamental vertical subdivision of an excavation square, implied only when easily identifiable natural strata are absent and when natural strata are more than ten centimeters thick.  

Natural strata refer to a vertical subdivision of an excavation square, which is reliant on the natural breaks in the sediments in terms of grain size, color, hardness, texture, or other features.  

It is important to know the difference between the arbitrary and natural levels as arbitrary levels could amalgamate artifacts from distinct natural levels, that is, of distinct geologic contexts.  

The archaeologists can recover the smallest ecofacts and artifacts with the assistance of flotation, screening, and bulk matrix processing

Which genotype determines that a person does NOT have sickle-cell anemia, but has the potential to pass the genetic disease on t
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is C) AS</em>

Explanation:

Sickle cell anaemia is a recessive disorder in which the blood of the person is not able to clot properly. For sickle cell to occur, both the alleles for the trait have to be recessive. A person who has a dominant and a recessive allele will be heterozygous, showing the dominant characteristics. But such a person will be a carrier for the disease. There will be chances for the offsprings of that person to actually have the disease.
