<h2>A) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

According to biological species concept, a species is a group of organisms that can potentially interbreed or mate with one another to produce viable fertile offspring

In some cases, organisms of different species can mate and produce healthy offspring, but the offspring are infertile, can’t reproduce

For example, when a female horse and a male donkey mate, they produce hybrid offspring called mules

The biological species concept connects the idea of a species to the process of evolution because members of a species can interbreed, the species as a whole has a common gene pool, a collection of gene variants

Flauer [41]

Answer:

No this is not an outbreak

Explanation:

No it cannot be classified as outbreak because an outbreak is when the number of affected individuals in an epidemic is much higher as compared to the estimated values. However, an epidemic is the one that affects the people around different countries of the globe.

This can be considered as endemic that is restricted to a certain set of people in a community

I would have studied pattern of movement of affected kids. The common pool to which all these kids visited can be the infectious one. Also one can test the pathogen in infected kinds, and look for similar pathogen in pool water through testing.

Which idea associated with relative dating helped inspire Charles Darwin's work on evolution?
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: The idea that the earth is extremely ancient.

Explanation:

Charles Darwin was a British naturalist who worked on the organic evolution of living organisms and in his books outlined how present-day organisms evolved from earlier, different species.

Evolution is an extremely slow process. It is difficult to obtain direct evidence of evolution in action. However, scientist including Charles Darwin, have from many fields gathered a great deal of indirect evidence that supports the theory of evolution. This evidence comes from many sources which include the FOSSIL RECORDS.

The history of life on earth is recorded in fossils (remains of organisms preserved mainly in earth's sedimentary rocks). Scientist can determine the age of rocks in which fossils occurs by using RELATIVE DATING. This method give a geological time scale, showing earth's age ( as measured by dating it's rocks), and tracing the history of life on it.

Therefore the idea that the earth is extremely ancient is associated with relative dating which has helped inspire Charles Darwin's work as an evidence on evolution.
