Iron rich deposits that formed about 2 billion years ago have red layers. Layers formed before then were not red. The red layers

formed when oxygen made during photosynthesis reacted with iron molecules in the ocean. The oxidized iron formed layers of sedimentary rock

Answer:

D. The biosphere change the lithosphere

Explanation:

The red formed due to oxygen which is produced by plants in the process of photosynthesis. This oxygen then reacted with iron atom and formed oxidized iron layers of sedimentary rock. So here plants are responsible for the formation of these layers and we considered plants as part of biosphere so we can say that biosphere is responsible for the change of lithosphere.

An average number of eggs a bird lays is based on natural selection. If a bird lays too many eggs, there a high chance that she
mr_godi [17]

The correct answer is stabilizing selection.

Stabilizing selection is a kind of natural selection in which the mean of the population steadies on a specific non-extreme trait value. This is considered to be the most general process of action for natural selection as the majority of the traits do not seem to vary radically with time.

Stabilizing selection is the reverse of disruptive selection. In spite of preferring individuals with extreme phenotypes, it favors the transitional variants. Stabilizing selection seems to eradicate the more extreme phenotypes, resulting in the reproductive success of the average or norm phenotypes.

This signifies that the most general phenotype in the population is chosen and continues to govern in the coming generations. As the majority of the traits vary slightly with time, stabilizing selection is considered to be the most usual kind of selection in the majority of the populations.

A Genetic cross also cross breeding is the deliberate breeding of two different individuals that results to offspring that carry part the genetic material of each parent. A monohybrid  cross is the breeding of two organisms that differ in a single trait.  A hybrid is an offspring from a cross between parents and has different phenotypes for a specific trait.
