Answer:

15003.19

Explanation:

The fossil bones age can calculated by using the formula

t = (In ( 12.5 /100) / (-λ)) × half life

where λ = 0.693

t = ((In (12.5 /100) / (-0.693) ) × 5000 = 15003.19 years

the age of the fossil bones is 15003.19

thus the age of the human habitation site 15003.19

What are some problems with eating fish from higher trophic levels?
NikAS [45]
<span>Trophic levels refer to where organisms fall on the food chain. Fish from higher trophic levels are often larger and have a higher dollar value at market, resulting in overfishing and the depletion of those species from the wild. If those fish are continued to be consumed at a high level, the loss of predators at the top of the food chain could throw off the balance in the ecosystem.</span>

<span>Ocean currents have a effect on precipitation and climate. The ocean currents bring warm water to cold places and vice versa. Without the ocean currents being the way they are, we would have the climate we have today. The precipitation part of my answer is pretty obvious. The ocean is water and water evaporates and makes clouds and then the clouds rain.</span>
