Why does an octopus or squid use its tentacles?
spin [16.1K]
Octopus and squid have little suction cups on their tentacles. It helps with sticking onto food (so it doesn't get away) and also helps with sticking into things. If it wanted to camouflage into some rocks, it can use its tentacles to cling to to the rock.

Tentacles can also grab and carry things. Scientists have made tests where they would put a clam in a jar with the lid screwed on. The octopus would grab onto the jar and use its tentacles to twist the lid off.

Without tentacles, octopuses and squids would be pretty helpless and probably couldn't survive in the deep ocean.

What factor prevents us from finding fossils from the precambrian era?
ad-work [718]
Am certain that the factor that prevents us from finding fossils from the Precambian era is that Most rocks from that era are deeply buried.  The precambrian is the informal name for the large expanse of time preceding the current Phanerozoic Eon. It began with the Earh's Formation about 4.5 billion years ago and lasted until the advent of multicellular life about 542 million years ago.

The biosphere is the part of the earth that supports life forms. It includes hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere. Various ecosystems, aquatic or terrestrial, are present in the biosphere.

Some problems with use of DNA analysis for forensic evidence may occur because of
alisha [4.7K]

Answer: Option D " all of the above "

Explanation: DNA can be a great source of information when used as a forensic evidence. This technique has many advantages and disadvantages when used as a source of information in case of crime.

Identical twins: There are some common fragments of DNA that is same in identical twins so it can be a difficulty in deciding the criminal.

Not enough of a sample: DNA should be present in a detectable amount to be used an sample for evidence, less than this detectable amount is a waste and cannot be used as a sample for evidence.

Contaminated and degraded sample: If the sample of DNA is contaminated or degraded then the result might be incorrect and might not be used as a sample for forensic evidence.

Hence, the correct answers are all of the above.
