Which idea associated with relative dating helped inspire Charles Darwin's work on evolution?
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: The idea that the earth is extremely ancient.

Explanation:

Charles Darwin was a British naturalist who worked on the organic evolution of living organisms and in his books outlined how present-day organisms evolved from earlier, different species.

Evolution is an extremely slow process. It is difficult to obtain direct evidence of evolution in action. However, scientist including Charles Darwin, have from many fields gathered a great deal of indirect evidence that supports the theory of evolution. This evidence comes from many sources which include the FOSSIL RECORDS.

The history of life on earth is recorded in fossils (remains of organisms preserved mainly in earth's sedimentary rocks). Scientist can determine the age of rocks in which fossils occurs by using RELATIVE DATING. This method give a geological time scale, showing earth's age ( as measured by dating it's rocks), and tracing the history of life on it.

Therefore the idea that the earth is extremely ancient is associated with relative dating which has helped inspire Charles Darwin's work as an evidence on evolution.

What genes direct the
Valentin [98]

Answer:

a. hox genes.

Explanation:

HOX genes have the following functions:

  • HOX genes are the homeobox subset.
  • They specify the areas of the embryo's body plan along the animal head-tail axis.
  • They are encoding Hox proteins that specify the position characteristics and ensure that the right structures form at the right position in the body.
  • They regulate high-level executive genes, such as transcription factors and intracellular signaling molecules, which adhere, number, form, and growth to cells.

The vertebrates are highly preserved.

The clusters and other genes occur uninterrupted.

Evolutionary, the heterogeneous regulatory areas between the genes most previously present are larger and more preserved than those present at the other ends of the clusters.

The characteristical feature is that these are homeodomain proteins with a highly preserved area of DNA binding encoded with homeobox gens.
