Answer:

<u><em>The answer is</em></u>: <u>Eroded surfaces are covered by younger rocks.</u>

Explanation:

<em>The contacts between strata that do not occur underlying rocks in immediate order of age, or that do not fit together with them as part of a continuous whole</em>,<u> are called inconfonnities</u>.

<u>Thus an inconfonnity is a surface of erosion</u> <em>or non deposition that represents a significant hiatus</em>, <u>and separates younger strata from older rocks. </u>

<u><em>The answer is</em></u>: <u>Eroded surfaces are covered by younger rocks.</u>

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

A mutation in the DNA sequence of the gene for brown fur  

Explanation:

The mutations are capable of changing the encoded protein product, in this case the gene that encodes for the fur color pigment. This mutation may have occurred during mitosis or meiosis divisions.

If it is a spontaneous mutation that occurred in the germinal line (meiosis) and confers an adaptive advantage, it will increase their frequency in the population.

Identify the correct order of events that allow nutrients from foods to be used by the body. Group of answer choices digestion,
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is- digestion, absorption, transport, elimination

Explanation:

The process of digestion starts from the mouth with the help of enzymes called salivary amylase present in our saliva. The food then passes through the esophagus to the stomach.  

In the stomach, the food is broken down in small fragments by churning movement which mixes digestive enzymes and food to form chyme.  

This chyme is passed to the small intestine where several enzymes from the liver and pancreas digest the food in smaller particles and absorb these particles in the blood. Therefore absorption takes place in the small intestine.

Then the solid waste material left behind after absorption is transported from small intestine to the large intestine and from large intestine waste is eliminated out of the body.

Therefore the correct order are: digestion → absorption→ transport→ elimination.
