Biology

Answer:

At the bottom of the sequence

Explanation:

According to the "principle of superposition of strata", the oldest rocks are formed at the bottom of sedimentary rock sequences.

The oldest rock layer would contain the the oldest fossil. Weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition would bring all sediments which includes rock materials and remains of living organisms to the basin where they would be lithified to form sedimentary rocks. This makes the oldest fossil to be at the bottom of the sequence. As time progresses, the fossil sequence would continue to accumulate and young upwards as the strata becomes relatively younger. Also, we know that fossils succeed one another in a definite manner.

This why relative dating of rocks can be possible.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

B. the combination of modern genetics and Darwinism.

Explanation:

The modern synthesis refers to the concept which combined the theory of inheritance by Mendel and theory of evolution by Charles Darwin. The theory also used the concept of Theory of germplasm.

The modern synthesis concept came in the early 20th century when the studies were going on Mendel's theory and the evolutionary aspects.  The concept led to the formation of new concepts like the macroevolution, microevolution and the evolution affected by mutation of genes.

Thus, Option-B is correct.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

D. Ligase

Explanation:

Ligase is an enzyme that can catalyze the fusion of two large molecules through the formation of a new chemical bond, which is usually accompanied by the hydrolysis of a small end chemical group.

Ligases play an important role in linking DNA breaks during excision repair, DNA damage, or spontaneous lesions such as basal sites or oxidized bases.
