Biology
1 answer:
Elena-2011 [213]3 years ago
4 0
We know that height in humans is a polygenic trait because it has a lot of variation. The height gene is controlled by at minimum three genes with six different alleles. If all of these alleles are dominant for the tall gene you will be tall if you are dominant for the short gene you will be short if there is no clear dominance between the two genes you will fall somewhere  in the middle.

Think about how the geologic time scale was created and how it is divided. Then answer the following questions.
katovenus [111]
The geologist time scale was formed when scientists studied rock layers and index fossils worldwide. With this information, they placed Earth's rocks in order by relative age. Later, radioactive dating helped determine the exact age of the divisons in the geologic time scale.

This scale is organized by the 4.6 billion years of earth's history into sections based on important changes seen in the geologic record. The largest intervals are called eons, with each eon containing many millions of years.

In precambarian time the processes that affect Earth's surface have lessened the erosion on the surface. Earth was being hit by meteorites every second. Now there is water erosion and there wasn't back then. The surface changes have lessened over time.
