What does the principle of Uniformitarianism state?

A. Geologic processes taking place on the Earth today operated similarly in the past and can be used to explain past geologic events.

B. Sedimentary rocks are deposited in approximately horizontal layers; if they are not horizontal, they have been rearranged by the action of forces within the Earth.

C. Younger rocks are deposited on top of older rocks in undisturbed sedimentary rock laters.

D. Specific groups of organisms have followed, or succeeded, one another in a definite sequence through Earth's history.

<u>Answer:</u>

The principle of Uniformitarianism state Geologic processes taking place on the Earth today operated similarly in the past and can be used to explain past geologic events.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Uniformitarianism is a geological doctrine, explains the present geologic process occurs at the same rate which was observed today in the same method for all the earth geological features.
The Doctrine of Uniformity is the other name for Uniformitarianism. The concept in the Uniformitarianism is the present is "the key to the past". There are many concepts in geoscience but it is considered an important one.
It was developed in the late 1700s. It says that the landforms that present on the earth's surface are not based on a catastrophic process.

According to the text, the interaction of what three developmental domains shapes human development?

Select one:

If Avery had observed transformation using only the extracts containing degraded DNA, degraded RNA, and degraded protein, but NO

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Polysaccharides are the genetic material.

Explanation:

Avery did not observe transformation using the extracts containing degraded DNA. On the other hand, extracts with degraded RNA, proteins, and polysaccharides exhibited transformation. Therefore, he concluded that DNA is the genetic material responsible for transformation. If he would have observed the process of transformation using extracts containing degraded DNA but not with degraded polysaccharides, he might have concluded that "polysaccharides were the genetic material responsible for the process of transformation."

Please help <br>is it currently possible to take a core sample?<br>

Xelga [282]

Answer is YES your welcome

Explanation:

Core samples are most often taken with their long axis oriented roughly parallel to the axis of a borehole, or parallel to the gravity field for the gravity-driven tools. However it is also possible to take core samples from the wall of an existing borehole.
