The answer is; It provided clues for scientists to develop a hypothesis about the origin of flight.
Scientists now postulate that dinosaurs are the ancestors of birds. This because the Microraptor is a dinosaur with feathers in all its limbs. It is also the smallest dinosaur to every been discovered and has been compared with the Archaeopteryx (involving even genetic sequencing) to hypothesize how dinosaurs evolved into birds.
Answer:
Mass Number and Atomic Number
Explanation:
Alpha decay or α-decay is a type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle and thereby transforms or 'decays' into a different atomic nucleus, with a mass number that is reduced by four and an atomic number that is reduced by two.
S-shaped growth curve(sigmoid growth curve) A pattern of growth in which, in a new environment, the population density of an organism increases slowly initially, in a positive acceleration phase; then increases rapidly, approaching an exponential growth rate as in the J-shaped curve.
An animal that hides under a rock to avoid predators is responding to an instinctive stimulus.
