Answer:

D. the law of crosscutting relationships

Explanation:

The law of cross-cutting relationships can help explain the age of the rock as it relates to the surrounding rock.

This law is one of the premise of relative dating. The relationship between the intrusion and rock body or country rock is used to discern their age.

  • When intrusions cross-cuts the host rocks, they are usually younger.
  • The host rock must haven emplaced before the intrusion sets in
  • The intrusion utilizes weak planes within the rock body to cool and solidify.
  • Now, when they are emplaced, then a vein or other intrusive bodies forms.

Will a female only inherit a sex linked disorder if her father suffers from the same disorder, and if her mother is a carrier fo
muminat

Answer:

The female will not inherit a sex linked disorder if her father suffers rather "have chances or the disorder if the mother is the carrier" for the disorder.

Explanation:

A female has 2 X chromosome, which she got from her parents each. The females will get the disorder or the defective gene if the mother has defective X chromosome or if the father is carrying the same disorder from his father(grandfather). In both the cases the female will be the carrier and have chances to inherit the defect to the offspring. But the female will  not affect as the  male will. As the female has 2 X chromosomes, and hence the dominant X will compensate for the error in recessive X.
