Answer:

Thousands of meteorites, which are fragments of asteroids that fall to Earth, have been recovered. These primitive objects provide the best ages for the time of formation of the Solar System. There are more than 70 meteorites, of different types, whose ages have been measured using radiometric dating techniques.

Meteorites that fall to Earth represent some of the original, diverse materials that formed planets billions of years ago. By studying meteorites we can learn about early conditions and processes in the solar system's history.

Umm.. maybe my answer is not what you needed

I'm sorry ❤️

Answer:

Scientists think that meteorites can get chemicals such as isopropyl cyanide from a space cloud. So, it’s possible that a meteor that had acquired isopropyl cyanide struck Earth and brought life to the planet.

Answer:

By designing suitable gene therapies in order to restore target gene expression.

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis and muscular dystrophy are inherited genetic disorders associated with serious health problems. Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the gene that encodes for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein, and it is a condition associated with abnormal production of sticky mucus that leads to problems in the lungs and the digestive systems. On the other hand, muscular dystrophy is produced by mutations in genes localized on the X chromosome such as, for example, the gene 'dystrophin'. Gene therapy is an experimental approach used to compensate abnormal gene function by introducing exogenous genetic material and thus restore their altered protein products. Consequently, personalized gene therapies can be useful to treat inherited disorders such as cystic fibrosis and muscular dystrophy.

How would earths atmosphere be different if organisms capable of photosynthesis has not evolved?

katrin2010 [14]

The Earth's atmosphere would have little or no oxygen. A by-product of photosynthesis is oxygen. Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants use energy from the sun to make their own food in the leaves. The process uses sun light, water and carbon dioxide to yield oxygen and simple sugars. The simple sugars are stored in form of starch for future use by the plants, while oxygen is either used for cellular respiration or released to the atmosphere. The process of photosynthesis adds oxygen to the atmosphere and uses carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Oxana [17]

Explanation:

All vital organs begin to lose some functionality as one ages during adulthood. Aging changes occur in all cells, tissues and organs of the body and affect the functioning of all body systems.

The living tissue is made up of cells. There are many different types of cells, but they all have the same basic structure. Tissues are layers of similar cells that fulfill a specific function. Different types of tissues group together to form organs.

There are four basic types of tissue:

The connective tissue supports the other tissues and joins them. This includes bone, blood and lymphatic tissue, in addition to the tissues that provide support and structure to the skin and internal organs.

The epithelial tissue provides coverage for the superficial and deeper layers of the body. The skin and lining of the ducts inside the body, such as the gastrointestinal system, are made of epithelial tissue.

Muscle tissue includes three types of tissue:

Striated muscles, such as those that move the skeleton (also called voluntary muscles)

Smooth muscles (also called involuntary muscles), such as the contents in the stomach and other internal organs

Myocardium, which makes up most of the wall of the heart (also an involuntary muscle)

Nervous tissue is composed of nerve cells (neurons) and is used to carry messages to and from different parts of the body. The brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves are composed of nerve tissue.
