labwork [276]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The cell was first discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665 using a microscope.

The first cell theory is credited to the work of Theodor Schwann and Matthias Jakob Schleiden in the 1830s.

Hooke had discovered plant cells -- more precisely, what Hooke saw were the cell walls in cork tissue. In fact, it was Hooke who coined the term "cells": the boxlike cells of cork reminded him of the cells of a monastery.

A molecule that can be used as a molecular clock has a neutral mutation rate of one mutation per 5 million years. How many years
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

20 million years

Explanation:

If we have a neutral mutation rate of one mutation per 5 million years, then the total of eight mutation between the two different species would be 20 million years. This is because both species will have 4 mutations in those 20 million years, so combined, both by 4, will have 8 mutations between them. So few mutations on so much time will result in two species that are very similar to each other even after 20 million years of evolution, even making them hardly distinguishable, especially if it comes to defining fossil records from them both. A nice example of this are the members of the felidae (cat) family, which are all very closely related, and are almost identical, thus making it extremely hard to distinguish two species of the same or similar size by their fossils.

The table below shows the elements that mainly comprise each of the four layers of Earth: Elements in Layers Layer Main Elements
yanalaym [24]

Layer that is 0.2 to 1.1 percent of Earth's total diameter is the thinnest layer of the Earth- Crust.

So, the correct answer is: oxygen and silicone. The crust consists of tectonic plates (in relative motion one from another) and has 5–70 km (~3–44 miles) in depth. The most abundant elements of this layer are: oxygen-46.6 percent by weight; silicon-27.7 percent; aluminum-8.1 percent; iron-5 percent.
