Answer:

Stratigraphy and Biostratigraphy

Explanation:

Stratigraphy is a science, a branch of geology, which studies the composition, structure and succession of stratified rocks in order to reconstruct the physical history of planet Earth. The study of rock strata provides information on various formation environments and the ancient physical landscapes of the earth. With stratigraphy it is possible to determine the relative age of the rock and strata. In addition, stratigraphy is also able to provide data on the climate of our planet for thousands or even millions of years and also enables us to determine the time when a particular animal or plant organism lived when one of these is found in a particular rock stratum.

Biostratigraphy is a branch of stratigraphy. In biostratigraphy the relative age of rock and strata is defined by the type or species of fossils that are found in this layer. For example, Rincosaurs are found in the upper Triassic. If a paleontologist finds a fossil of Rincosaurus, this layer is from the Triassic.

Romashka [77]

Question

What does it mean to optimize a solution?

To find out best possible solution for a given problem within the given constraint is generally termed as optimization

How are solution optimize ?

To solve an optimization problem, begin by drawing a picture and introducing variables. Find an equation relating the variables. Find a function of one variable to describe the quantity that is to be minimized or maximized. Look for critical points to locate local extrema.

Solid liquid gas or plasma. Solid would be ice cubes (frozen state), liquid would be the water inside of the glass, the gas would be when you take that same water and place it on a stovetop to bring to a boiling point. (Gas state) and finally the plasma state is when you your gas particles (from the gas state) if you heat the gas particles, they will turn to plasma.
