Answer:
The bottom layers of the rock could have formed before life occurred.

Explanation:
The bottom layers of the rock could have formed before life occurred because there is no fossil is present. If there is life at that time so the fossils are present at the bottom layer so the absence indicates that is no life present at that time. The bottom layer is older than the upper layer so that's why fossils of bacteria are found in the upper layer of the rock.

Answer:
C. Because bacterial fossils are found only in the upper layers, scientists can conclude that these bacteria evolved towards the end of Precambrian time.

There’s two different types of answers for this question so I just put both of them. Hope it helps : )

valina [46]

Answer:

            12.33 cal/sec

Explanation:

As we know,

                          1 Kcal  =  1000 cal

So,

                     0.74 Kcal  =  X cal

Solving for X,

                      X =  (0.74 Kcal × 1000 cal) ÷ 1 Kcal

                      X =  740 cal

Also we know that,

                      1 Minute  =  60 Seconds

Therefore, in order to derive cal/sec unit replace 0.74 Kcal by 740 cal and 1 min by 60 sec in given unit as,

                                       = 740 cal / 60 sec

                                       = 12.33 cal/sec

Under equilibrium condition, what is the probability of an electron state being occupied if it is located at the Fermi level
Sav [38]

Answer:

Hi

The Fermi Level is a term used to describe the set of electron energy levels at a temperature of absolute zero. Fermi's energy concept is important for the understanding of the electrical and thermal properties of solids. Both electrical and thermal processes involve energy values of a small fraction of an electron-volt. In thermal equilibrium, the net current of both electrons and holes is zero.
