Answer:

The correct answer is "Charles Lyell".

Explanation:

Charles Lyell was a notorious Scottish geologist that associated events of Earth's history with natural events taking place at the same time. In 1830, Charles Lyell published the book "Principles of Geology", associating the formation of the Earth's crust with different small and vast natural events. Charles Darwin's was largely influenced by Lyell's ideas and he took his book during the famous travel trough the Galapagos islands.

Answer:

Charles Lyell

Explanation:

Charles Lyell was a Scottish geologist who explained the former transformations in the Earth’s surface in his geology masterpiece. This book is considered as the most significant scientific book ever and has 3 volumes. Lyell expressed how the surface of the Earth was changing by the time and reinforced his argument for <em>uniformitarianism</em><em> </em>through geology.

<em>Uniformitarianism:</em><em> It is the idea that the Earth’s natural processes behave the same way today as they were in the past and will keep on doing in the future as well.       </em>

1. If the strength of the magnetic field at A is 64 units, the strength of the magnetic field at B is _____.
borishaifa [10]

1. The strength of magnetic field at A is 64 unit, then the magnetic field strength at B. is 256 units.

64 × 64 = 256 units.

2. If the strength of magnetic field B is 6 units then the strength magnetic field at A is 24 units.

which is 256 : 4 = 16 units.

Magnetic field is one of the two ways where the intensity of magnetic field is being expressed.

If a mother has a blood type AB+- and her father has a blood type B- and she marries a man with O- blood type. What is the perce
Marina CMI [18]
Genetics, blood type gene has two alleles, each allele has genotype A, B or O. The A and B are dominant, and O is recessive. So allele A combined with allele O is type A. Similarly, BO is type B, AA is type A, BB is type B, OO is type O, and AB is typeAB.

If both parents have type A blood, then the alleles could be AA or AO, thus the allele A frequency is 75%, allele O frequency is 25% for both parents. 
So the chance of alleles OO is 25% × 25% = 6.25%, 
alleles AA is 75% × 75% = 56.25%, 
alleles AO is 75% × 25% = 18.75%, 
alleles OA is 25% × 75% = 18.75%.
Since AA, AO and OA are blood type A, and OO is blood type O, thus their child has 6.25% chance to be blood type O and 93.75% chance to be blood type A. 

The +/- is called the rhesus factor, with + being dominant, and - being recessive.
So if both parents are -, the kids are always -, otherwise the kids might be + or -.

B=black and b=brown. A Bb guinea pig crosses with a Bb guinea pig, and four offspring are produced. All of the offspring are bla
Sladkaya [172]

If two Bb guinea pigs cross, there are four possible outcomes:

  • both pass the B: the son is BB
  • one of the pass the B and the other pass the b: the son is Bb
  • both pass the b: the son is bb

Since B (being black) is dominant, the son will be black in both BB and Bb cases. In order for a son to be brown, he must be a pure bb specimen.

So, if all of the offspring are black, it means that all four guinea pigs are either BB or Bb, which in turn means that at least one of the parents passed the B gene.
