The scientists rely on the following cues to hypothesise and test for the presence of life on various extraterrestrial bodies:
1. Presence of water
2. Presence of hydrocarbons
3. Presence of carbon
4. Presence of salt pans
The presence of hydrocarbons may indicate that there's anaerobic life thriving beneath the surface of the meteorite. The presence of traces of carbon may indicate that there was life once thriving on its surface ( which however is not possible in case of a meteorite because of its size). The absence of any of the above listed items will indicate that the surface of the meteorite is devoid of any life.

Answer:
When a ball accelerates toward bottom it experiences both rolling friction and air resistance.
Explanation:
- When the ball rolls from the hill the gravitational force of attraction comes in action and accelerates the ball toward the bottom of the hill.
- This motion of ball is the rotational motion, rolling friction acts on it due to rotational motion.
- As the velocity of the ball increases air resistance also starts to have significant effect on its motion.
- These two forces try to oppose the motion of the ball.
