Explain how the geologist knows that the flow is older then the intrusion

1 answer:

7 0

Through dating a sample of that rock, we determined the extrusion to be 250 million years old. An intrusion extends from the bottom layer into the fourth oldest layer. Through dating a sample of that rock, we determined the intrusion to be 100 million years old. The principle of superposition states that the oldest sedimentary rock units are at the bottom, and the youngest are at the top. Based on this, layer C is oldest, followed by B and A. So the full sequence of events is as follows: Layer C formed.

In the laboratory, you have a beaker containing 100 milliliters (mL) of NaOH solution at pH = 13. Into this beaker, you carefull

romanna [79]

Answer:

d. The pH of the beaker`s contents will decrease.

Explanation:

Since the new substance is an acid and has a very low pH, that is 1. it will reduce a little bit the pH of the original base (NaOH). Some ions of hydrogen of the acid are going to react with the hydroxyl group of the sodium hydroxide to form water.

Since the differences of the volume is big, only a small part of the base is going to be neutralize, but at the end, the final pH of the solution is still going to be a base.

Hope this information is useful.

How is the genotype of the offspring different from that of the homozygous dominant parent?

tatuchka [14]

Since it's been crossed with a homozygous wrinkled green, the offspring has a genotype for heterozygous round and yellow. As round and yellow are dominant traits, they're expressed in the phenotype. But when self pollinated in the f2 generation, the recessive ones will show as well

Hope it helps :')
