What is the basis on which the subdivisions in a Geological time scale are made
Andru [333]
 <span>The geologic time scale is divided into periods, which are then divided into epochs, which are further divided into ages. For example, the time of the dinosaurs lasted 3 periods (Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous), each period had 3 epochs (late, early, middle), and each age fit into one of those. Many epochs have more than 1 age associated with them. 
As for the basis for differentiating the eras, I'm not so sure. The only one I can say for sure is the end of the Cretaceous, which is when the dinosaurs suddenly became extinct due to a meteor impact. I think the divisions are based on significant, global-scale events that changed the world.

Sorry its so long but that the answer i think >:) ur welcome

What is a prokaryote, and when did prokaryotes arise?
RideAnS [48]
<span>A prokaryote is a unicellular organism that belongs to either the domain Bacteria or the domain Archaea. Therefore, unlike a eukaryote, the prokaryote lacks in a nucleus and other organelles. The first organisms that appeared about 3.5 billions years ago were prokaryotes. They developed primitive forms of photosynthesis without oxygen as a waste. The first photosynthesizing prokaryotes appeared about 2.7 billion years ago which led to the changes in Earth atmosphere and consequently organisms dependant on oxygen could arise.</span>

The allosteric inhibitory effector BPG binds to both the A form and the F form. Both forms show a lower affinity for O2 in the p
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

HbA; lowers

Explanation:

The BPG in our blood stands for Bisphosphoglyceric acid. It is known as by its name as 2,3-Bisphosphoglyceric acid. It is present in our blood in the red blood cells. It binds with more affinity towards the de-oxygenated hemoglobin as compared to the  oxygenated hemoglobin.

Hemoglobin in blood delivers oxygen to our tissues moire efficiently. It is abbreviated as Hb.

Thus BPG binds more tightly towards HbA or adult hemoblobin and which lowers the affinity for oxygen.
