Use the principle of original horizontality to identify the two rocks that are nearly the same age.

Biology
1 answer:
Digiron [165]3 years ago
4 0

The correct answer is - C and D.

The principle of original horizontality means that the rock layers have been order by age, with the layers at the top being the youngest, while the layers at the bottom being the oldest.

In this picture it is little hard to tell which rocks belong to the same layer from first look because there are multiple twists and turns, an uneven surface, caused by pressure on the crust.

By carefully examining the image though, we can trace the layers more properly and see which ones are younger, which older, and which have the same relative age. In this case, we can see that the markings C and D are actually on the same layer of rocks, thus being a good indication that they have the same relative age.

Grasslands typically do not flourish when large herbivores are removed. In fact, they are soon replaced by broad-leaved herbaceo
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Grasslands and herbivores have a mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship. If larger herbivores such as Kangaroos and Elephants are removed from them, they may become extant.

Explanation:

Herbivores are always hungry and they are always looking for ways to replenish lost energy. Between tree shoots and grass, they often go for the former because they are tender, easier to reach, and less difficult to masticate than the young tree shrubs.

When baby trees become bigger, their shade prevents adequate sunlight from reaching the grass, then gradually they become scanty or subdued for as long as the shade remains.

When large herbivores are removed or leave a grassland, trees have the ability to flourish. Then the results indicated above happens.

Cheers!

What are the estimated allele frequencies in a population if the frequency of the dominant phenotype is 0.64 (Hint: handout to g
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

0.8 and 0.2

Explanation:

Hardy Weinberg law states that the allele frequency of the population remain stable from one generation to next generation if no natural selection, drift or mutation occurs in the population.

Let p and q be the dominant and recessive frequency of the population respectively.

The dominant phenotype means p² = 0.64

p = 0.8

and we known that p + q = 1, in hardy Weinberg equilibrium.

0.8 + q = 1.

q = 0.2

Thus, the dominant allele is 0.8 and recessive allele is 0.2.

Which of the following does not indicate microbe involvement in energy and nutrient flow? Select one: a. Thermal hot springs war
Aneli [31]
<h2>Correct Answer is (b)</h2>

Explanation:

     (b) is right Answer.

  1. An Greenhouse gas is any vaporous compound in the environment that is equipped for engrossing infrared radiation, consequently catching and holding heat in the climate.  
  2. <em>The warmth in the environment, ozone harming substances are liable for the nursery impact, which eventually prompts an Earth-wide temperature boost.   </em>
  3. Methanogenesis is known as when the development of methane by the microorganism. Life forms fit for delivering methane have been distinguished uniquely from the space Archaea, a gathering phylogenetically unmistakable from the<em> two eukaryotes and microscopic organisms, albeit many live in close relationship with anaerobic microbes.  </em>
  4. <em>Animals and cultivating, rot in landfills, spillage from the oil and gas industry. </em>
  5. Since 1750, the measure of methane in the climate has multiplied due to human action.
  6. <em>The oil and gas industry is the top donor, making 33% of all methane emanations.</em>
