A scientist is using relative dating to determine the age of a fossil that she discovered. What would allow her to draw the best

conclusions about fossils that are younger than the one she discovered? measuring the amount of carbon and nitrogen in the surrounding rock measuring the amount of potassium and argon in the surrounding rock finding fossils in the same area that are in layers deeper under the surface finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface

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

Contact [7]
A supply curve is a graph that show the number of goods that a producer supply at a certain price at a given point in time. A decrease in supply will cause the equilibrium price to increase. When there is a decrease in supply, the price of the product in the market will increase and the equilibrium price will also increase.

Sexual selection can favor the evolution of elaborate traits that natural selection acts against. How does sexual selection prod
Naily [24]

Answer:

The answer is: Linkage disequilibrium at alleles controlling the sexually selected trait and fitness bind them together evolutionarily.

Explanation:

Indirect selection can be said to operate at one locus resulting in genetic correlation with another locus, which is the main goal in the selection process. During the process of sexual choice, this commonly occurs when one preferred allele diffuses because it is out of balance with other alleles, which are benefited by natural selection or sexual selection.
