answer:

: D.finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface.

Relative dating refers to the age estimation method in which past events are determined, to compare the age of object, organism, strata or rock with the age of other similar entity. This method gives an approximate or estimated age, it does not provide absolute age.  

The older fossils are found in deeper layers of the strata as compared to younger fossils. This represents the geological time and life span of primitive or preexisting organisms. Therefore, according to the given situation, finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface is the best conclusion

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

<em>At the respiratory membrane, where the alveolar and capillary walls meet, gases move across the membranes, with oxygen entering the bloodstream and carbon dioxide exiting. It is through this mechanism that blood is oxygenated and carbon dioxide, the waste product of cellular respiration, is removed from the body.</em>

Describe three observations an astronaut might make while viewing Russia at night.(Site 1)
serious [3.7K]
<span>One observation would be the physical size of Russia compared to other countries, despite a lack of visible borders from space. In addition, part of Russia's outline would likely be obscured by the various clouds and objects in the stratosphere; this would allow the astronaut to view potential cloud and weather patterns on earth. Also, an astronaut could see outlines of Russia's geography such as mountain ranges.</span>
