Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

According to the law of Superposition, the rocks that are present at the base are the older rocks and the rocks that are deposited on the uppermost layer are the younger rocks. The younging direction of the rock is towards upward.

From the given condition, four fossils are found from four layers, of which the bottom layer contains the oldest fossils and the top layer contains the youngest fossils. The fossil A is in the layer 1 (oldest), fossil B is in the layer 2, fossil C is in the layer 3 and fossil D is in the layer 4 (youngest).

So, from the Superposition law, the rock layer that is the topmost layer is the layer 4 which contains the youngest fossil (fossil D).

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).

If the dna double helix in salmon contains 22% guanine, what is the percent of cytosine, thymine and adenine? express your answe
Oksanka [162]

Theoretically it is the Chargaff's rule which entails that the ratio of purines and pyrimidines are 1. So following that rule you can solve this question.

G (purine) = C (pyrimidine) and

A (purine) = T (pyrimidine)

So G + C  would be 28% and hence

A +C would be 72% i.e. 36% each.

Please note that their are certain modified bases besides these four are also there including methyl Cytosine, Methylated Adenine. But htese modification does not violate the Chargaff's rule and they follow standard Watson Crick base pairing.
