Answer: Dust particles and gases reflect light in all directions, which is called scattering. The short wavelengths of blue and violet light are the wavelengths that are reflected or scattered. For this reason, scattered light looks bluer than other sunlight, which is why the sky looks blue during the day.

hope you find this helpful :)

Answer:

As light moves through the atmosphere, most of the longer wavelengths pass straight through. Little of the red, orange and yellow light is affected by the air. However, much of the shorter wavelength light is absorbed by the gas molecules.

What evidence for the age of the Earth is indicated by the fact that sedimentary rock is found on mountain tops? that the Earth
Ket [755]

The correct answer is - That some force lifted the rocks from the water.

The fact that there's sedimentary rocks on the tops of the mountains is an evidence that there has been some force that managed to lift upwards parts of the seafloor. Taking into consideration how slowly this force manages to lift up parts of the Earth, we can easily assume that the Earth is very old. The amount of time that is needed for a part of the seafloor to be lifted few thousand meters upwards is counted in tens of millions of years, thus giving us evidence that the Earth has been around for a very long time.

What are the benefits/risks associated with the addition of antibiotics and genetically modified
Korolek [52]
One major risk is mutation. Diseases can mutate just has how we have genetic mutations. The bacteria in the cattle may become immune to the drugs over a long period of time, or mutate and become immune. As we try to fight it with more antibiotics, it may become immune to those as well, eventually creating a bacteria immune to most antibiotics, leaving us unable to fight it, especially in poorer areas, due to the fact that if we did create new antibiotics they would be more expensive than your common antibiotic, such as penicillin.<span />
