Answer:

B. Catastrophism

Explanation:

Catastrophism is the theory that states that the Earth was mostly shaped by very sudden effects. These sudden and short-lived events would occur worldwide in scope and change the Earth rapidly. This is in contrast to uniformitarianism that states that slow incremental changes made the Earth like it is today. Changes like erosion.

If a mammal gives birth to live animals, how is a monotreme a mammal if it lays eggs? This has been confusing me for the past 30
natka813 [3]

Answer:

In some ways, monotremes are very primitive for mammals because, like reptiles and birds, they lay eggs rather than having live birth. In a number of other respects, monotremes are rather derived, having highly modified snouts or beaks, and modern adult monotremes have no teeth.

Describe the structures of proteins and nucleic acids, and then explain the relationship between these two molecules within a ce
barxatty [35]
<span>Proteins are large biological molecules consisting of one or more chains of amino acids.  Proteins differ from one another primarily in their sequence of amino acids, which is decided by the nucleotide sequence of their make-up, and which usually results in folding of the protein into a three-dimensional structure that determines its job. 
    </span><span>Nucleic acids are linear polymers (chains) of nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of three things: a purine , nitrogenous base a pentose sugar, and a phosphate group.  
    </span><span>
 Basically Proteins are chains of amino acids, nucleic acids are chains of nucleosides (base+sugar+phosphate), and the sequence of nucleic acid results in the specific sequence of amino acids in the protein, finnally determining its shape and function. </span>
