Answer: Heterotrophic

Explanation: Phytoplanktons can be defined as the microscopic organisms found on the top of the water bodies that has the ability to trap solar energy and make food.

This ability of the organism to make its own food can be defined as photosynthesis  which is an autotrophic mode of nutrition.

Here, the whale differs from the phytoplankton in terms of mode of nutrition. Whale has heterotrophic mode of nutrition as it depends on other organism for its food. It basically feeds on the smaller fishes for its survival.

How do scientist use layers of rock to determine when the Great Oxidation event occured?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Using the concept of relative dating

Explanation:

Scientists use the concept of relative dating principles to determine when the Great Oxidation event occurred.

Relative dating is the process of placing ancient event in their proper time sequence based on the relationship between rock lithologies.

  • An event like the great oxidation will have significant chemical, biological and physical effect on the rock units.
  • Rocks that form during this period in time will have very unique chemical signatures.
  • Therefore, by studying these rocks, the age of the layer can be fixed when we compare it to the standard geological column.
