In which of the following environments would you NOT expect to find fossils? (2 points)

1 answer:

7 0

You would generally not be able to recover fossils from volcanic or plutonic rock, so looking around in an area on active volcanic islands would yield nothing.

You always want to look in the layers of sedimentary rock for fossils. The Grand Canyon would be a great place to see these layers as well as a shallow ocean because you may find the remains of prehistoric shark teeth or bones protruding through the surface of the sand.

The answer is Active volcanic islands.

If this is a question in which you can choose more than one answer it may be smart to also choose a shallow ocean as well. This is because it is difficult to get the tools and materials necessary down in the water and would be difficult to get deep enough underneath sand to start digging into actual fossil bearing rock.

So in that case, the answer would then be both Active volcanic islands and A shallow ocean.

Why do hyphae spread from one area to another

grandymaker [24]

ungus and mold do not provide their own nutrients so they must feed off of various food sources. They absorb the nutrients and break down the food. As this happen the hyphae is able to add new cells and grow upward as well as branching out like a tree.

In mice, the ability to run normally is a dominant trait. Mice with this trait are called running mice (R). The recessive trait

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Parental genotypes: RrBb, RRBB

Offspring phenotype: Running and black hair

Explanation:

Given, Running (R) is dominant over waltzing (r)

Black hair (B) is dominant over brown hair (b)

Parent 1: Heterozygous running, heterozygous black = RrBb

Parent 2: Homozygous running, homozygous black = RRBB

When they mate ( RrBb X RRBB ) :

Gametes produced by RrBb = RB, Rb, rB, rb

Gametes produced by RRBB = RB

Offspring:

RB Rb rB rb

RB RRBB RRBb RrBB RrBb

All offspring mice will be running mice and will have black hair because all the four types of genotype at least have one dominant allele for both the genes.

At which point does the motion of convention currents occur to drive plate movement

OLEGan [10]

Answer: 2

The convection currents shown in points 1 and 3 transfer heat from the outer core (number 4) to the lithosphere. Here, the lower density hot magma breaks apart the plates at point 2 creating a divergent plate boundary. This new magma mass will drive a lateral movement of the plates. The edges of the plates which have a higher density basalt rock will sink into the mantle and get consumed in trenches/subduction zones

Compares and contrasts the structure and function of viruses with all living cells.,

liq [111]

The major difference between viruses and living cells is that viruses do not have nuclei while living cells do. A second major difference is that viruses need a host cell to survive while living cells do not. For the most part, viruses just contain genetic material (typically in the form of RNA) inside of a capsid. Living cells have many more organelles, including ribosomes and cytoplasm, which viruses lack.
