What is a fossil?
Fossils are fossilised (petrified) remains of animals/plants. A fossil though, is only a fossil, when it is from a different geological era.
How does that relate to evolution?
Evolution and fossils are very related. When we scan the DNA of different fossils, we find that the DNA can be similar to living species we have today, which helps us trace back their origins.
Tracing back a species origins is not something we do just to see how that species changed along time. When we manage to make an evolutionary chart of a species, we know how they changed, what they changed, and maybe not more, but very importantly, when the previous species were extinguished. If we know when they were extinguished, we can find out what caused that extinction:
- A lack of adaptation.
- Lack of resources.
- Temperature changes.
- Increase of predators.
- Deadly migrations.
- Other natural disasters.
So, in other words, by studying one species, we can study our own planet.

Answer: Higher concentration; Lower concentration.
Explanation: The food that we eat undergoes digestion and breaks down into smaller components.
These small components of the food needs to be absorbed first by the process of diffusion.
The water molecules along with the electrolytes are absorbed from an area of its higher concentration in the lumen is transported to area where its concentration is very low.
Hence, the correct answer is diffusion, which is responsible for the transportation of products from one place (higher concentration) to another parts (lower concentration)in the body.
Answer:
- law of superposition - Relative Dating
- important method for geologists - Absolute Dating, Relative Dating
- places historical events in their correct order - Relative Dating
- establishes how many years ago a given event took place - Absolute Dating
- radioactive decayused on rock strata - Absolute Dating
Explanation:
Absolute dating is an important process used by geologists. This process allows geoologists to determine the timing of a given factor in the environment. In other words, absolute dating allows a numerical age to be estimated for that factor or the age interval between factors, but without putting the factors' formation events in order. It is generally used to date chemical and physical elements present in artifacts and rocks.
Relative dating is also an important process for geologists, but it does provide a relative order of past events and does not provide a numerical age, like absolute dating. It is generally used to date rocks, surface deposits and fossils, often using the law of superposition as a basis.
Answer:
no
Explanation:
since females have have to x's and no y's
