Not to be too picky, but the question ought to say a positively charge ion rather than atom.
I will assume that is what you mean. An ion, using ordinary means, will be positive if it loses electrons (which are negative).
An ion can never gain protons. Left alone, the nucleus will remain unchanged for the rest of eternity. D is wrong.
C is wrong. If electrons are gained, the ion will go negative.
B is wrong for the same reason D is. An ion can't gain protons and it can't lose them.
A is the answer.
Here are your answers:
1. Paleontologist use the technique called "relative dating" which is when scientist compare rocks to determine the age. So if you have a rock which has a similar surface to another rock you could determine the age of that rock. You could also use the technique called the "radiometric dating" by measuring the amount of isotopes in the rock.
2. You can determine the age of a rock by "looking how rough or smooth the rocks are"... so lets say you fine a rock that has many points, sides, and rough edges which means the rock is actually pretty young so it was recently created and most likely a sedimentary rock, but if you find a rock that has smooth sides and no rough edges which would mean the rock is pretty old rocks could go up to thousands of years old and if a rock is that smooth it could be up too a million years old.

The reintroduction of gray wolves to yellowstone national park has contributed to a decline in the elk population and provided food for bald eagles and ravens.

Cyanobacteria helped produce O2. Because it helped releasing O2 into the atmosphere, today we see different animals because Cyanobacteria helped reduce the poor oxygen in the atmosphere.
