Fossils can be classified by their morphology (how they look), ethologically (how they acted), and toponomically (where they are in the substrate layers) to produce phylogenetic trees. However, more recent advances in genetic technology allow us to extract DNA from more recent fossils that have not had too much breakdown of the DNA, and we can much more accurately classify species from that information, and also provide much more accurate phylogenetic analysis.

Which statements describe planetesimals? Select three options. They are the origins of planets. They formed from gas and dust. T
Anika [276]

A solid minute object that is said to come together for the formation of the planet and are believed to produce cosmic dust are called planetesimal.

The options that best describes the planetesimals are:

  • Option A. They are the origins of planets.

  • Option B. They formed from gas and dust.

  • Option D. They are believed to have developed in debris disks.

The descriptions can be explained as:

  • It is believed that planets formation occurred through planetesimals. The formation happened from gas, dust particles and debris.

  • By the process of accretion, the discs coalesced and became bigger and solid over time. This bigger mass started attracting other matters towards each other because of gravitational force.

  • This pull resulted in either breaking or creation a bigger mass of pieces known as planetesimals. The collision continued to become bigger and solid planets we know today.

Therefore, options A, B and D are correct.

To understand the chemical basis of inheritance, we must understand the molecular structure of DNA.
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

C) reductionism

Explanation:

The approach of reductionism is applied to decipher the basic concepts that rule some complex life processes. In this approach, the complex life processes can be interpreted by explaining the physical and chemical structure of involved components and their interactions. DNA molecules store genetic information. Inheritance means the transfer of genetic traits from one generation to the next. Therefore, the chemical structure of DNA is the application of reductionism to understand the chemical basis of inheritance.
