Chemistry
1 answer:
zubka84 [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

D. Malleability

Explanation:

Gold is made up of the element Au and it is a metal.

Pyrite is iron sulfide and it is a non-metal.

  • They have very similar appearance to such an extent that pyrite is widely called the fool's gold.
  • To distinguish between the two, we simply explore their metallic properties.
  • Gold is malleable. Pyrite is not. It will crumble under pressure.

Answer:

10. Embryology is the branch of biology and medicine concerned with the study of embryos and their development.

11. I think the answer is, Both humans and whale embryos have a tail and a backbone (I'm not sure).

12. Basilosaurid, any member of the family Basilosauridae, an early group of whales that lived from the middle Eocene to the late Oligocene Epoch (about 41 million to 23 million years ago).

13.  Protocetids had long snouts, large eyes, and their nasal opening was farther caudally than in earlier archaeocetes.

14. Two ways we know that Maiacetus was a whale re:

1) Their skeletons have all been found among fossils of sea-creatures which suggests they lived in the sea.

2) Their hip bones were strong enough to walk on land, but their short legs combined with long flat fingers and toes suggest they would have had difficulty walking.

15. The name Maiacetus means Mother Whale. Maiacetus is significant because of how well the skeletons were preserved.

Hope this helps! :D
