In my opinion, I think geology provides the best evidence of the earth's age because we have physical evidence of the different layers of the rock formation. Sedimentary rock levels have shown that much of the earth was covered by water at one point, while there have also been rock formations higher than mountains at another point in earth's history. In relation to the branch of biology, evidence of fossils in rocks demonstrates life on earth in a past era.

Hope this helps!

The distance of pluto from sun is huge. On an average it's 6.1\times10^{9 km or 6.1\times10^{12 m.

Why would it be advantageous to have more or fewer bones in the pectoral girdle?
True [87]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>It is advantageous to have  lesser number of bones in the pectoral girdle.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Pectoral girdle is made up by the bones that connect the upper limbs to the appendicular skeleton  which includes all the limb bones. Pectoral girdle in humans is made up of two bones. They are clavicle (collar bone) and scapula. The pectoral girdle allows the free movement of upper limbs.

The bones of pectoral girdle are not as massive as the bones of pelvic girdle since it doesn’t have the function of support. Lesser number of bones in pectoral girdle makes  movement of upper limbs more free.
