What could a scientist do to determine what era the Eocene Period belongs to on the geologic time scale?

Burka [1]

Answer:

Option B) study information related to the Cenozoic era

Explanation:

The complete question is

Scientists discovered that the Eocene time period existed in Earths history around 34 MYA. What do they need to do to determine what time period Eocene belongs to on the geologic time scale?

A) learn what happened during Precambrian time

B) study information related to the Cenozoic era

C) view the timing of events in the Mesozoic era

D) research events that happened during the Paleozoic era

Solution -

The period of Eocene belong to the Cenozoic era. The Cenozoic era is divided into three periods-

a) The Paleogene – Existed between 65.5 to 23.03 million years ago

b) The Neogene - Existed between 23.03 to 2.6 million years ago

c) The Quaternary – Started some 2.6 million years ago and is continuing till present

The Paleogene is subdivided into three epochs –

A) The Paleocene – existed between 65.5 to 55.8 million years ago

B) The Eocene – existed between 55.8 to 33.9 million years ago and

C) The Oligocene – existed between 33.9 to 23.03 million years ago

Hence, studying about Cenozoic era will give information about the Eocene epoch

Hence, option B is correct

Which population is limited by density-dependent factors?

dedylja [7]

Answer: (c) A local wolf population experiences a lethal epidemic of parvovirus.

Explanation:

A limiting factor is one which is capable of limiting the population of the species. It can be a living factor or a non-living factor.

The density dependent limiting factor is a factor which affects the population of a species depending upon the size of the population. There are many density dependent limiting factors such as disease, migration, predation and food.

C is the correct option, this is because of the fact that the epidemic outbreak can spread over to the large number of members of the population. If larger the population size more likely will be the chances of spreading.

Mitosis is a process used for normal growth and development. Explain how and why a mutation in a BRCA gene may affect the cell c

Romashka [77]

Answer:

The BRCA gene is a tumor-suppressor gene found in the breast; to be more specific, it produces proteins that suppress cancerous activities/abnormal growth in the body. A mutation in a BRCA gene would allow these abnormal growth activities to go unchecked and thus increase the rate of mitosis. Cell cycle checkpoints would significantly be worse at their jobs of checking and correcting for errors during the cell cycle. Tumors would result as well, as cancerous growth continues, and the tumor can become metastatic.

A protein channel in a hydrogen ion pump is shown below. What would happen if the concentration of H+ ions were higher inside th

inessss [21]

Answer:

The H+ ions moves outside.

Explanation:

The H+ ions moves outside the mitochondria of the cell if the concentration of H ions were higher inside the mitochondrion than outside environment of the mitochondrion in order to equalize the pH or H+ ions concentration of both inner side of mitochondria and outer side environment. This movement of H+ ions from a region of higher concentration to the region of lower through a semi-permeable membrane is known as osmosis which has a positive effect on the cell as well as organelles of the cell.
