Answer:

C. could not provide a mechanism for moving continents

Explanation:

Without the discovery of magnetic reversals recorded on the ocean floor, scientists  could not provide a mechanism for moving continents.

Magnetic reversals are responsible for geological shifts and depend on the distribution of tectonic plates that causes movements of continents.

Asymmetric movement of tectonic plates leads to movement of continents  and the degree of asymmetry varies with the same rythm of the magnetic reversal rate.

Hence, discovery of magnetic reversals are important to identify the mechanism for moving continents.

hammer [34]

Answer:

<h2>RrYy and rryy </h2>

Explanation:

1. As given; Round seeds (R)  are dominant on wrinkled seeds (r),

Yellow seeds (Y) are dominant on green seeds (g).

In a testcross, between an unknown genotype and a homozygous recessive with wrinkled and green seeds (rryy).

offspring are:  

Round and yellow are  53; genotype (R_Y_)

round and green are  49;  genotype (R_yy)  

wrinkle and yellow are 44;  genotype (rrY_)

wrinkled and green are  51 ; genotype  (rryy)

Here, the genotype of parents of these offspring would be RrYy and rryy.

Compare renewable and nonrenewable energy sources, and discuss the effects of each on biodiversity.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Nonrenewable energy resources, like coal, nuclear, oil, and natural gas, are available in limited supplies. This is usually due to the long time it takes for them to be replenished. Renewable resources are replenished naturally and over relatively short periods of time.

A geologist is studying two different rhyolite flows to determine if they were erupted at the same time.
ss7ja [257]
Q1. The answer is 1.

It can be calculated using the equation:

 (1/2)ⁿ = x

x - decimal amount remaining, 

n - a number of half-lives.


x = 50% = 50/100 = 0.5

n = ?

(1/2)ⁿ = 0.5

log((1/2)ⁿ) = log(0.5)

n * log(1/2) = log(0.5)

n * log(0.5) = log(0.5)

n = log(0.5)/log(0.5)

n = 1


Q10. The answer is 2.


It can be calculated using the equation:

 (1/2)ⁿ = x

x - decimal amount remaining, 

n - a number of half-lives.


Rhyolite #2 has 25% of the parent H remaining:

x = 25% = 25/100 = 0.25

n = ?

(1/2)ⁿ = 0.25

log((1/2)ⁿ) = log(0.25)

n * log(1/2) = log(0.25)

n * log(0.5) = log(0.25)

n = log(0.25)/log(0.5)

n = -0.602 / - 0.301

n = 2



Q3. The answer is 100 million years.


A number of half-lives (n) is a quotient of total time elapsed (t) and length of half-life (H):

n = t/H

n = 1

t = ?

H = 100 000 000 years


n = t/H

t = n * H

t = 1 * 100 000 000 years

t = 100 000 000 years<span>
