Which statements indicate what the fossil record suggests about evolution on Earth? Check all that apply.
Gennadij [26K]

The following are the statements, which indicates that the fossil record suggests about evolution on Earth:  

1. Humans have only recently existed on Earth.  

2. The organisms originally lived only in Earth's water.  

3. The plants did not have flowers when dinosaurs existed.  

The fossil remains have been discovered in the rocks of all the ages. The simplest organisms fossils are witnessed in the oldest rocks, and the fossils of more composite species are found in the newest rocks. This supports the theory of evolution suggested by Darwin, according to which the simple life forms slowly gets evolved into more composite ones.

What would happen if the sand dunes in an area were destroyed?
Komok [63]

Answer:

<u>Our beaches would be unprotected</u>

In the short-term, these artificial sand hills will be destroyed by the elements. Because sand dunes protect inland areas from swells, tides, and winds, they must be protected and defended like national treasures. ... The ocean and the wind can have an unpredictable, destructive force on coastal regions.

- surfertoday

Natural sand dunes play a vital role in protecting our beaches, coastline and coastal developments from coastal hazards such as erosion, coastal flooding and storm damage. Sand dunes protect our shorelines from coastal erosion and provide shelter from the wind and sea spray.

The mass of an unidentified rock is 40 grams. Students determine the volume of the rock by placing the rock in a cylinder with w
insens350 [35]

Answer:

A. Coal

Explanation:

Volume_{rock} = water displaced by rock

Water displaced by rock = volume of water after rock is dropped into the cylinder - volume of water before the rock was dropped into the water

Water displaced by the rock = 180 ml - 150 ml = 30 ml

Volume_{rock} = 30 ml

Density of rock:

40 grams => 30 ml

x grams => 1 ml

Cross multiply

1*40 = 30*x

40 = 30x

40/30 = 30x/30

1.3 = x

Density of rock = 1.3 g per 1 ml

Recall: 1 ml = 1 cm³

Therefore,

Density of the rock = 1.3 g/cm³

1.3 g/cm³ falls within the range of 1.1 - 1.4 g/cm³

Therefore, the rock is identified as Coal.
