10

Explanation:

The Ritcher scale is a logarithmic scale and it suggests that the number increases by a factor of 10.

One point on the scale differs from another by an order of 10.

  • The Ritcher scale is used to measure the magnitude of earthquakes in a particular area.
  • It is graduated form 1 to 10
  • The magnitude of the quake increases as one moves from 1 through 10.
  • This is because the magnitude of the quake actually increases by an order of 10.

Arthropods invaded land about 100 million years before vertebrates did so. This most clearly implies that
horrorfan [7]

The correct answer is - A) arthropods evolved before vertebrates did.

The arthropods have evolved much earlier than the vertebrates. They were on the scene millions of years before the earliest marine forms of the vertebrates. Because the arthropods were on the scene much earlier, they managed to use the newly formed suitable environment on the land. They were initially marine, but with only slight adaptations they were able to adapt to the terrestrial life.

Once the arthropods got out of the marine environment and started to take up the niches in the terrestrial environment, they experienced a real explosion in their evolution and diversification. They were the dominant land dwellers, and because of the lack of competition, as well as the higher levels of oxygen, they managed to reach pretty big sizes for their standards. Unfortunately for them, their brain capacity is limited to a very low level, so once the competition came on the scene, they were quickly pushed from the throne as the dominant terrestrial creatures.

What does free floating DNA mean ?
ivann1987 [24]

Cells with cell chemicals and genetic material having no defined organelles and are all enclosed within a cell wall are called prokaryotes. Organisms in this group are small in size and are mainly bacteria. Ribosomes in these small cells are also small and ‘free floating’.  DNA in prokaryotic cells is in the form of a circular strand and not as a chromosome.

Have an awesome day! :)
