Which phrase describes the relative age of a rock?

Biology
1 answer:
finlep [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Uses the law of superposition to determine which rock is older or younger.

Explanation:

Relative age refers to the age of the rock when compared to other rocks. The law of superposition was developed by Nicholas Steno. In this process, you determine which rock layer is older or younger in terms of the sequence they were laid out or layers were formed. This law states that the lower the layer, the older the rock layer is as compared to those on top of it.

You want to estimate the number of canvas backs (a type of duck) at the Sacramento Wildlife Refuge. In two days you capture 200
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Option A 400 individuals

Explanation:

Using this formula, we can estimate the population size of the canvas backs as this is a capture-recapture method.

N = (MxC) / R

Where N = estimated Number of individuals in the population

M = number of individuals captured and Marked = 200

C = total number Captured the second time (with and without a mark) = 200 and

R= number of individuals Recaptured (those with a mark) = 100

Thus, we have

N = (MxC) / R

= (200 x 200) / 100

= (40,000) / 100

= 400 individuals.

In pea plants the allele for tall plants in dominant to the allele for short plants, and the allele for purple flower colour is
Tom [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 4. ttPp

Explanation:

Given - tall is dominant over short pea plant

let assume T is dominant and t is short which is recessive

Similarly, P for dominant purple flower and p for white flower

The offspring has a short plant which means it has both t allele or recessive allele for the height of a plant by the cross of a true-breeding purple and true-breeding white:

    P   P

p   Pp Pp

p   Pp Pp

This means the offspring would have a heterozygous case for the genotype of the flower of the pea plant

Thus, the correct answer is ttPp
