<h3>Are fossils bones? What evidence did plant and animal fossils contain?</h3>

Fossils are evidence of prehistoric organisms (plants or animals) that are at least 10,000 years old. The most common and obvious fossils are the skeletons, bones and teeth of surviving animals, but there are also fossils of footprints and skin marks. Other fossils that are also evidence of past life include leaf marks, footprints and trails, cavities, feces, and root marks.

<h3>What is the evidence for evolution from fossils? </h3>

fossils record the existence of extinct species, indicating that different organisms inhabited the Earth at different times in Earth's history. It also helps scientists reconstruct the evolutionary history of modern species.

Terry saved some of the tooth-like objects within the hagfish's round mouth to analyze their composition in his mentor's biochem
Triss [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a. "scales".

Explanation:

The missing information of this question is the following:

"Terry catches a ray-finned fish from the ocean and notices that attached to its flank is an equally long, snakelike organism. The attached organism has no external segmentation, no scales, a round mouth surrounded by a s*cker, and two small eyes. Terry concludes it is a hagfish."

Gymnophiona is a group of amphibians characterized by having dermal scales as integumentary element. These amphibians are tetrapods and their scales are comprised of several layers of unmineralized collagenous fibers. The skeleton of the hagfish is made entirely of cartilage, therefore it is very likely that the tooth-like objects of hagfish's are made of cartilage, just like the scales of the tetrapod.

Create an explicit equation for each recursively-defined sequence below.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

  t(n) = 3·5^(n-1)

Explanation:

The recursive formula describes a sequence in which each term is 5 times the one before it. This is a geometric sequence with common ratio 5 and a first term that is said to be 3.

As you know, the generic formula for a geometric sequence is ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

For a1 = 3, r = 5, and a sequence named "t", this is ...

  t(n) = 3·5^(n-1)
