The main difference between relative dating and radiometric dating is that relative dating is the method used to determine the age of rock layers according to their relative depth whereas radiometric dating is the method used to determine the absolute age with the use of decaying products of the natural radioactive

Answer:

The main difference between relative dating and radiometric dating is that relative dating is the method used to determine the age of rock layers according to their relative depth whereas radiometric dating is the method used to determine the absolute age with the use of decaying products of the natural radioactive. Also, absolute dating is more precise than relative dating because it tells the exact age of the fossils. Both are ultimately based on the fossils found in the strata.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is : option A.

Explanation:

Binary search is an array that works by comparing an gene or element in the middle of the array with the desired value, an if the desired value is sorted out and matches with the element , if the element is high than the desired value of the gene the sorting process will continue in the lower half of the array. So, for the finding a particular gene in all sorted protein coding genes the best choice would be binary search algorithm techniques.

Thus, the correct answer is : option A.

Por qué algunos fosiles son similares a especies actuales
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

La evidencia de un antepasado común en los seres vivos, que han encontrado durante décadas científicos que trabajan en numerosos campos, demuestra la descendencia común de estos seres, que la vida en la Tierra se desarrolló a partir de un último antepasado universal, que la evolución existe y que puede demostrar los procesos naturales que han dado como resultado la biodiversidad de la vida en la Tierra. Esta evidencia apoya la síntesis evolutiva moderna, la actual teoría científica que explica cómo y por qué cambia la vida a lo largo del tiempo. Los biólogos evolucionistas han documentado evidencias de antepasados comunes realizando predicciones verificables, probando hipótesis y desarrollando teorías que ilustran y describen sus causas.
