Certain fossils, called index fossils, help geologists match rock layers. To be useful as an index fossil, a fossil must be widely distributed and represent a type of organism that existed for a brief time period. Index fossils are useful because they tell the relative ages of the rock layers in which they occur.

Suppose that part of an amino acid sequence of a protein changed from tyrosine-proline-glycine-alanine to tyrosine-histidine-gly
stira [4]

Suppose that part of an amino acid sequence of a protein changed from tyrosine-proline-glycine-alanine to tyrosine-histidine-glycine-alanine. This change was most likely caused by a point mutation called a <u>substitution</u>.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Any protein is synthesized by joining a number of amino acids together. This amino acid is placed based on the sequences of the DNA , for every 3 sequence there is an amino acid that is synthesized and therefore it is called as a triplet codon, since there may be many sequence for a single amino acid we call it as degenerate codon.

What do crops of the green revolution need in order to produce higher yields?
Airida [17]

Answer:

These crops where improved  with technology, production of high-yielding variety, and improve farm practices. All these ensured  the crops of green revolution had increase yield.

Explanation:

Through  genetic engineering, high-yielding variety of cereals e.g wheat, maize, rice, were genetically engineered so that certain features which enhanced increased productivity were selected for.

Use of fertilization, the adoption of mechanization,good cropping and farming system are other factors which enhanced yield of these crops. Specifically, these crops were modified to enhance their Nitrogen uptake, which promotes rapid growths.

Describe two forms of mechanical weathering.
GalinKa [24]
1.Frost Wedging (Freeze-Thaw)

Water expands by 9 percent when it freezes. As it expands, it exerts up to 4.3 million pounds per square foot of pressure. Since water seeks low points, repeated freezing and thawing can lead to deep vertical fissures as cracks are extended downward. Cracks that allow entry of roots lead to similar wedging.


2.Crystal Formation

Crystal formation cracks rock in a similar way. Most water contains dissolved salts. When water in rock fissures evaporate, the salt concentration increases, which leads to crystallization. This occurs in arid regions where the humidity fluctuates widely, so that the salt can be redissolved and carried into new fissures.
