Charles Darwin studied finches on the Galapagos Islands. While the finches on all the islands came from the same ancestors, the

distance between the islands was too great to allow finches from different islands to interbreed. Over time, the size of the finches on the different islands remained the same, but the shape and size of their beaks changed, as shown here. This adaptation helped the finches find food on their particular island. The change in the size and shape of the finches’ beaks was MOST LIKELY caused by A) geographic isolation B) a change in climate. C) endangerment of the species. D) a decrease in the mutation rate.

Which statement describes Redi's experiment, which helped disprove spontaneous generation?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

He examined covered and uncovered meat to determine that maggots came from eggs.

Explanation:

Prior to Redi's experiment and other supporting experiments, it was formerly believed that life could emanate from non-living things, for example, the generation of maggots from rotting meat.

In 1668, a scientist called Francesco Redi disproved the idea of spontaneous generation. He did this when he experimented that the maggots from meats are only as a result of eggs laid by flies when they perched on the meat.

He placed the meat in two jars; an uncovered jar and another in a covered jar with a cloth, after several days, the uncovered jar had maggots on the meat, while the covered jar had no maggot on the meat, but on the cloth. With this experiment, he was able to demonstrate that the maggot arose from the eggs of the flies, not the meat itself which is nonliving and hence, disproved the idea of spontaneous generation.

What are limitations to radiometric dating?
Anon25 [30]
Radiometric dating depends on radiation from carbon atoms which means only carbon based things can be dated. And life is based on carbon so basically only living things can be dated.
