LiRa [457]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Absolute age is defined as the numeric age of fossils.

To identify the absolute age of a fossil,  the amount of certain radioactive elements in the rock are measured. When fossils are formed in the rocks, a small amounts of radioactive elements is included in it. The process to identify age of fossil using radioactive elements is known radiometric dating. So, radioactive isotope and its decay product gives absolute age of fossils.

Hence, the correct answer is "D".

What is the levels of kinetic energy in the particles in each state of matter
SSSSS [86.1K]

Solids, liquids, gases, and plasmas: these words should be quite familiar to you because they are the four phases of matter, which are simply the different forms matter can take on. What's neat is that many substances can exist as more than one phase. Take water, for example: water can exist as a solid (ice), a liquid (liquid water), and a gas (water vapor).

The difference between these states is the amount of energy. Solids have the least amount of energy, which is part of why their particles hang so tightly together. Liquids have more energy than solids, which is why they will take on the shape of their container but only up to the surface.

Gases have even more energy than liquids. So much more in fact that their particles spread out to fill the entire space of their container. Gas particles have so much energy that they just can't keep still. They fly around in all directions, putting as much distance as possible between themselves and the rest of the gas particles.

Plasmas are ionized gases, and in their natural form are uncommon on Earth. You've seen them as man-made things, like neon signs and fluorescent light bulbs. But in the rest of the universe, plasma is actually the most common phase of matter! Most stars are plasma, as are the northern lights you see around the Polar Regions. Plasma only exists under certain conditions though, so we'll end our discussion of it here for this lesson.

What would have happened if Avery had added an enzyme that digests it all the nucleus acids in the mixture of heat-killed bacter
telo118 [61]
The answer is most likely B). 'The harmless bacteria would not have been transformed, and the mice would have lived,' because, then bacterium transform, they use the genetic material present in their environment to do so, and when Avery destroyed the nucleotide bases(Genetic material) with an enzyme he destroyed any chances that the bacteria would have had at transforming into the virulent strain.
