In 1798 Thomas Malthus argued that populations grew exponentially while food supplies grew arithmetically. Consequently, Malthus

Answer:

Malthus theory was wrong because he did not take into account that food supply could also grow exponentially, thanks to advances in technology such as mechanization (for example, tractors), the use of pesticides and fertilizers, and the development of agricultural science.

He also did not predict that population growth would eventually taper down, at least in the developed world, because urbanization, industrialization, and the rise of living standards have shown to result in families with fewer children.

When was the Clydesdale horse domesticated
IRISSAK [1]

The first recorded use of the name Clydesdale in reference to the breed was in 1826 at the exhibition in Glasgow. Another theory of their origin, that of them descending from the Flemish horses brought to Scotland as early as the 15th century, was also promulgated in the late 18th century.

Absolute age examines the position of rocks in a sequence. true or false?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
No, this is statement is false!

An absolute age is not dependent on anything - it's the age in "years" not "older than" or "younger than".

The position of rocks is more inherent to the relative age of the rocks- relative to the other layers of the rocks.
