Which of the following would most likely be key to gathering evidence that the "RNA World" hypothesis is valid?
velikii [3]

The answer is; Simulation of early Earth conditions and long-term study of the resulting molecules

It is believed that the first molecules on earth were made spontaneously through reaction spurred by energy from lightning and also the heat from the earth. It is believed that these molecules over time then formed polymers through the catalysis by metals in the oceans. These polymers were able to self-replicate and also act as enzymes since they were able to fold up. This hypothesis was coined by Carl Woese, Francis Crick and Leslie Orgel in the 1960s. To prove it, the then conditions of early earth need to be replicated, data collected, and analyzed.

5. According to a biomass pyramid, 50 mice will need 200 square meters of grass, if one mouse needs to eat four square meters of
netineya [11]

Answer:

The statement is true.

Explanation:

As every single living organism, the mice also have their own unique requirements as to how much food they need to produce enough energy in order to stay healthy. Because the mice are small, warm-blooded, highly active, and have very fast metabolisms, they need a lot of food for their size.

If one mouse needs four square meters of grass to stay healthy, so if we want to find out how much grass is needed for more mice we just need to multiply the number of mice by the amount of grass needed for one mice. In this case, we have 50 mice:

4 x 50 = 200

We got 200 square meters of grass, meaning that that would be the amount/area of grass that will be enough to support the population of 50 mice.
