Proteins are built from a basic set of 20 amino acids, but there are only four bases. Simple calculations show that a minimum of three bases is required to encode at least 20 amino acids. Genetic experiments showed that an amino acid is in fact encoded by a group of three bases, or codon.

fossils in _____ layers of rock are generally estimated to be _____then fossils found in the deeper layers A. older,younger B. n
Liula [17]
Your answer is (B.)
Fossils in newer layers if rock are generally estimated to be younger than fossils found in the deeper layers because it is closest to the surface. The soil and earth didn't have enough time to "bury" the remains of the dead animal ( Bury is used for a simpler term) underground. The farther down a fossil is the more likely it is older unless the animal tends to burrow. Seeing as the question is probably talking of older animals that is unlikely for an animal to burrow that far. So your answer is B.
