The answer is True.
Among other biological component of the earth's system, Biosphere includes all the living organisms such as plants and animals. Other component such as lithosphere, atmosphere,hydrosphere, and all other spheres of the earth's biological system does not contain life forms.
Explanation:
To establish the age of a rock or a fossil, researchers use some type of clock to determine the date it was formed. Geologists commonly use radiometric dating methods, based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon, as reliable clocks to date ancient events.
Answer:
Sigma factors bind to the promoter region of a particular gene and facilitating the binding of RNA Polymerase to the promoter region (formation of the RNA polymerase holoenzyme complex) in order initiate transcription of the gene.
Put simply - Helps RNA Polymerase do it's job.
Well, that is true. That technique has been used to identify the radioactive decays in minerals to date back to when they were formed.
