Answer:

sedimentary - pieces of rock are loosened by weathering, then transported to some basin or depression where sediment is trapped. If the sediment is buried deeply, it becomes compacted and cemented, forming sedimentary rock.

igneous - form when hot, molten rock crystallizes and solidifies.

Explanation:

metamorphic - forms when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure, hot mineral-rich fluids or, more commonly, some combination of these factors.

BabaBlast [244]

The right answer is genotype.

The genotype is the information carried by the genome of an organism, contained in each cell in the form of deoxyribonucleic acid DNA. Carried by the chromosomes, it is located inside the nucleus in eukaryotes and in cytoplasm in prokaryotes.

In humans, it is estimated that the number of genes is between 25,000 and 30,000.

Reptiles are better suited to dry land than their amphibian ancestors because
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

<u><em>All of the above.</em></u>

Explanation:

1. Their watertight skin minimizes moistures loss: <em>Reptiles have a reputation that they are “slimy” when we touch and hold them; however, they have dry skin, which has even fewer glands than mammals or amphibians. The main special feature of their skin is that the epidermis is heavily keratinized with a layer, which also prevents water loss.</em>

2. Amphibians must lay eggs in water or in moist soil to reduce moisture loss: <em>Because amphibian eggs don't have an amnion, the eggs would dry out if they were laid on the land, so amphibians lay their eggs in water.</em>

3. Reptile egg shells are harder than amphibians' eggs: <em>Reptile eggs are coated with a leathery or brittle coating, and the animals that hatch from them are miniature versions of the full-sized animal parent. In contrast, amphibian eggs are transparent and jelly-like. The animals that hatch from them still must go through metamorphosis.</em>

<u><em>Hope this helps you have a better understanding:) !!</em></u>

Which part of a cell is used by a virus to produce its protective protein coat?
Nadusha1986 [10]

A ribosome is the part of a cell is used by a virus to produce its protective

protein coat.

Virus produces a protective protein coat known as capsids  which serves as

a means of protection for the organism. The capsids are produced through

the organelle known as ribosome.,

The ribosome acts as a site for protein synthesis in organisms and the

capsids being made up of protein means the ribosome was used to

produce its  protective protein coat.
