Study the graph about oxygen content of Earth’s atmosphere. Oxygen Content of Earth apostrophe s Atmosphere line graph. X axis i

s Millions of Years Before Present. Y axis is Oxygen in volume percent. The line starts at 1000 millions of years before present at 4 percent oxygen, remains level until 625 Millions of Years Before Present, increases quickly to 13 percent oxygen, then increases slowly to 18 percent oxygen. The line jumps to 35 percent oxygen near 300 millions of years before present, drops quickly to 15 percent oxygen, then increases to 31 percent oxygen near 100 millions of years before present, before dropping down to 20 percent oxygen. Which describes oxygen content as Earth evolved over time? Oxygen levels sharply declined about 400 million years ago. Oxygen levels stay above 15 percent starting 200 million years ago Oxygen levels remain below 5 percent starting 1000 million years ago. Oxygen levels raise significantly between 1000 and 700 million years ago.

Answer: Oxygen levels stay above 15 percent starting 200 million years ago

Explanation:

from the graph study about oxygen content of Earth's atmosphere, we can understand that  

1)

4 billions year ago = None, 3 billions year ago = Cyanobacteria and Archaea , 2 and 1 billions year ago = Bacteria and Green algae , 500 Ma = invertebrate fossils started to existence. Early land plants came in to existence around 398 MA that is Devonian. Dinosaurs are came in to existence during Triassic and Jurassic that is around 251 Ma. Man and animals are recent organism came under Holocene that is 11000 years ago.

2)

The first cells on the earth are anaerobic microorganisms, as the CO2 level is too high they survive by using CO2.

3)

Starting around 2.7 billion years ago, photosynthesis by Cyanobacteria and later plants , pumped “OXYGEN” in to the atmosphere. This caused the decline of anaerobic bacteria and allows the diversification of animals as seen in “CAMBRIAN” around 500 millions year ago.  

Early vascular plants “CAPTURED” CO2 starting before the Carboniferous period that began around 350 millions year.Leading to lower temperatures and allowing and allowing the seed plants to outcompetes seedless plants.

Modern human activities has raised both “CO2 and METHANE” level in the atmosphere to over leading to higher temperature and extinction of other species.

Wht is the process of science cyclical and not a linear process??​
Dima020 [189]

Answer:The process of science is iterative.

Science circles back on itself so that useful ideas are built upon and used to learn even more about the natural world. This often means that successive investigations of a topic lead back to the same question, but at deeper and deeper levels. Let's begin with the basic question of how biological inheritance works. In the mid-1800s, Gregor Mendel showed that inheritance is particulate — that information is passed along in discrete packets that cannot be diluted. In the early 1900s, Walter Sutton and Theodor Boveri (among others) helped show that those particles of inheritance, today known as genes, were located on chromosomes. Experiments by Frederick Griffith, Oswald Avery, and many others soon elaborated on this understanding by showing that it was the DNA in chromosomes which carries genetic information. And then in 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick, again aided by the work of many others, provided an even more detailed understanding of inheritance by outlining the molecular structure of DNA. Still later in the 1960s, Marshall Nirenberg, Heinrich Matthaei, and others built upon this work to unravel the molecular code that allows DNA to encode proteins. And it doesn't stop there. Biologists have continued to deepen and extend our understanding of genes, how they are controlled, how patterns of control themselves are inherited, and how they produce the physical traits that pass from generation to generation. The process of science is not predetermined.

Any point in the process leads to many possible next steps, and where that next step leads could be a surprise. For example, instead of leading to a conclusion about tectonic movement, testing an idea about plate tectonics could lead to an observation of an unexpected rock layer. And that rock layer could trigger an interest in marine extinctions, which could spark a question about the dinosaur extinction — which might take the investigator off in an entirely new direction. At first this process might seem overwhelming. Even within the scope of a single investigation, science may involve many different people engaged in all sorts of different activities in different orders and at different points in time — it is simply much more dynamic, flexible, unpredictable, and rich than many textbooks represent it as. But don't panic! The scientific process may be complex, but the details are less important than the big picture …

lana [24]

Answer:

the equilibrium constant is 1.8 x 10⁻5 and strongly favor the reactants.

Explanation:

the chemical reaction provided for the two equation are the same but different direction i.e a reversible reaction. Assuming, the mass of reactants and product and temperature remain constant.

therefore, the equilibrium constant K, is 1.8 x 10⁻5. this is a very small value of K, thereby strongly favor the backward direction to form reactant.
