34kurt

Answer and Explanation:

This happened because when the agar was desiccated, all the water was released, but the solutes used in the culture medium remained in the petri dish, that is, all the nutrients remained available to H. salinarium, which survived by consuming these nutrients. Although the growth of H. salinarium requires a higher level of NaCl than the level left in the petri dish, we can consider that some colonies of H. salinarium adapted to the low level of NaCl and managed to survive, passing this characteristic to new colonies.

Where would you be most likely to find the oldest rocks on Earth?
alekssr [168]

At the outer edges of ocean crust

Explanation:

The rocks found in continents are older and in some cases the oldest. The younger rocks are found in mid ridge of ocean. The oldest rocks can be found in ocean trenches that are very deep.

At the outer edges of ocean crust, oldest rocks can’t be found as relatively newer ones are formed continually and mostly found. So, different regions have different ages of rocks and needs to be explored properly.
