How do scientists use ice to study ancient climates

Biology

Answer: Ice is very important for studying ancient climates. Ice can preserve the remains of organisms such as a Wholly Mammoth, possibly for hundreds of thousands of years. The details and phenotype of the mammoth such as its fur, can provide evidence of Earth's ancient climate, and where it occurred (which is somewhere that contains ice).

Counting the yearly layers can date them. The oxygen in the water molecules also holds a key to past climate. Scientists are able to use the oxygen atoms in the glacial ice as a proxy for air temperature above the glacier.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Man #1

Explanation:

Man #1 with type AB can be ruled out.

Mother - Ai

Child - ii

The father would have to have at LEAST one i allele.

AB makes it impossible to have i (you can only have 2 alleles).

The other two men, (Man 2 - Ai and Man 3- ii), have the possibility of being a father.

which classification groups have linear chromosomeswhich classification groups have linear chromosomes
aleksklad [387]

Until recently, prokaryotes did not contain linear plasmids or chromosomes, but they have since been discovered in spirochaetes, Gram-positive bacteria, and Gram-negative bacteria. Bacterial linear DNA has been classified into two structural kinds. Each end of linear plasmids from the spirochaete Borrelia has a covalently closed hairpin loop, while each end of linear plasmids from the Gram-positive filamentous Streptomyces has a covalently connected protein. In eukaryotic cells, replicons with comparable structures are more common than in prokaryotes. However, linear genomic architectures are likely more widespread in bacteria than previously thought, and some replicons may be able to switch between circular and linear isomers. The molecular biology of these widely scattered pieces reveals information about the origins of linear DNA in bacteria, including evidence of prokaryote-eukaryotes genetic exchange.
