Answer:

Answer number 2

Explanation:

So in Geology, Precipitation of rock layers took place over the last hundreds of millions of years...During that process many living organisms have died and are precipitated with the rock layers... Let me explain with an example.

Dinasours went extinct Million years ago while the Dodo bird went extinct a couple of hundred years ago

Would you expect to find Dinasour fossils in newer rock layers or the dodo? lets's say 200m deep? Dodo for sure, Dinasour fossils are waay too old to be found at such shallow deeps that's why fossils in newer layer of rocks are absolutely younger than fossils found at deeper layers

beks73 [17]

Answer:

This was the only treatment options adopted for the Ebola in 1995 in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The assumption was that immune response is generated by the virus in the WBC of the infected individuals. These response produce antibodies.

A total if 8 patients were transfused with these blood contained antibodies, but one of these died, the remaining 7 patients survived.

The antibodies were believed to have multiplied(produced b-cells) to neutralize the Ebola virus(antigens) and to ensure the survival of the patients

Few seeds can be dispersed by more than one method of seed dispersal.’ Explain with suitable examples.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

There are five main modes of seed dispersal: gravity, wind, ballistic, water, and by animals. Some plants are serotinous and only disperse their seeds in response to an environmental stimulus.

Gravity: A good example of gravity dispersal is the marigold flower. When they are ready, these seeds drop to the ground.

Wind: There are two types of wind dispersal adaptations, the floaters, and the fliers:

(wind) Floaters: The common dandelion is a good example of this type of seed dispersal.

(wind) Fliers: Maple seeds grow in pairs, but when they are mature, they separate, and a strong wind can pull them from the stem

Ballistic: Some common examples of this type of dispersal are garden peas. When the cells grow older, the result is that the pods break open and twist. This twisting actions pops the seeds lose and pushes them away from the pod.

Water: Coconuts have a husk that surrounds the seed. This husk is very buoyant and a coconut seed can float across hundreds of miles of ocean before washing ashore on a new island to germinate and grow into a tree.

Animals: there are also two types of these, hitchhikers and edibles. Seeds that stick to the outside of animals, or are spread when they go out the other end after being eaten:

Hitchhikers: Some examples are cockleburs and foxtail.

Edibles: These seeds are surrounded by good tasting fruit, like apples and peaches.
