Paleontology, the study of fossils, supports evolution because the discovery of old life forms shows how new life evolved.
Answer:
How Much does the earth weigh?
5.972 × 10^24 kg
How far away is the sun?
92.351 million mi
What is a black hole?
A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light can not get out.
How do airplanes fly?
Four forces keep an airplane in the sky. They are lift, weight, thrust and drag. Lift pushes the airplane up. The way air moves around the wings gives the airplane lift.
How are rainbows made?
A rainbow is caused by sunlight and atmospheric conditions. Light enters a water droplet, slowing down and bending as it goes from air to denser water. The light reflects off the inside of the droplet, separating into its component wavelengths--or colors
Explanation:
The answer is A: Mass extinction.
"Abrupt disappearance of many land and marine species" = extinction of many species.
Answer:
There are many questions that can be answered by science but I will provide some examples below.
Explanation:
Science involves many areas of study, <u>from biology and chemistry to physics and neuroscience</u>. Generating questions and providing answers are the most important steps in science as this process has allowed thousands of scientists to develop new drugs to treat previously-mortal diseases, to protect endangered species, to prevent population declines, to understand the behavior of fauna, among many other remarkable outcomes and discoveries.
In this answer, I will focus on some questions belonging to the life sciences areas that can be answered by science:

<em />
Neuroscience (humans)
<em>Is schizophrenia hereditable?</em>
<em />
Behavioral Ecology
<em>Does climate change affect the capability of cuttlefish to camouflage?</em>
Neuroscience (Animals)
<em>Are killer whales capable of problem-solving?</em>
<em />
Ecology
<em>How does the reduction of apex predator populations (terciary consumers) affect the population of secondary consumers?</em>
<em />
Conservation Biology
<em>Why do increased temperatures lead to coral bleaching? What is the mechanism and how can it be controlled?</em>
<em />
Animal Behavior
<em>What is the mechanism that Ophiocordyceps unilateralis (Zombie fungus) uses to manipulate ants for its own disperal?</em>
<em />
Parasitology
<em>Does the parasite Toxoplasma gondii induce erratic behaviors in humans?</em>
Answer:
The type of mutation that causes this translation error is called deletion. Deletion occurs when a section of a DNA is deleted or lost. In cystic fibrosis, three nucleotides are deleted that results in the lost of phenylalanine
