Answers

Answer 1

Hi, did you forget to mention that this question is about the article "The Rise of Oxygen in the Earth's Atmosphere" by American Museum of Natural History

Answer:

D. when oxygen increased in Earth’s early atmosphere

Explanation:

Right at the beginning of the article we can find out what scientists are trying to discover. This is because the introduction of the article introduces us to Grant Young and Jay Kaufman, a university professor and a geologist, respectively, who are the main scientists in the study that seeks to discover and set firm dates for the increase in oxygen in the Earth's primitive atmosphere.

Folded mountains form when hot, fluid rock rises through thin spots in Earth's crust, whereas shield volcanoes form when segments of Earth's crust are bent and doubled over.
Folded mountains form when segments of Earth's crust are bent and doubled over, whereas shield volcanoes form when hot, fluid rock rises through thin spots in Earth's crust.

Answers

Answer:

Folded mountains form when segments of Earth's crust are bent and doubled over, whereas shield volcanoes form when hot, fluid rock rises through thin spots in Earth's crust.

Explanation:

Folded mountain (Himalayas, Rockies, Alpha) refers to  all the  large mountains on planet earth.It is  made up of sedimentary rocks.They are formed when two plates collide into each another, folding up:hence the name folded mountain.They are characterised with large granitic intrusion extending to many kilometers through the length, reaching the mountain edges.

This results from high magma supply rates ,which occurs during long term effusive eruptions.

They are recognised as broad, dome shaped structure, flowing   downwards just like a shied used in battles,

Answer: D. Folded mountains form when segments of Earth's crust are bent and doubled over, whereas shield volcanoes form when hot, fluid rock rises through thin spots in Earth's crust.

Explain how science uses fossil evidence to support the theory of evolution.

Answers

Answer:

A: LAYER

Explanation:

simple i took the test

Fossil remains have been found in rocks of all ages. Fossils of the simplest organisms are found in the oldest rocks, and fossils of more complex organisms are in the newest rocks. This supports Darwin's theory of evolution, which states that simple life forms gradually evolved into more complex ones.

Evidence for early forms of life comes from fossils. By studying fossils, scientists can learn how much (or how little) organisms have changed as life developed on Earth.

There are gaps in the fossil record because many early forms of life were soft-bodied, which means that they have left few traces behind. What traces there were may have been destroyed by geological activity. This is why scientists cannot be certain about how life began.

Fossils provide a snap shot of the past and allow us to study how much or how little organisms have changed as life developed on Earth.

Carbon tends to form four bonds. What kind of bonds are they?
O A. Covalent
O B. Ionic
O C. Hydrogen
O D. Metallic

Answers

Carbon tends to form four bonds. These bonds are called as covalent bonds. The correct option is A.

What are Covalent bonds?

An atom can establish bonds with other atoms in two main ways: covalent and ionic. The sharing of electrons between two or more atoms forms a covalent connection. When two or more ions join contact, they can create ionic bonds that are held together by charge differences.

An electron exchange that results in the formation of electron pairs between atoms is known as a covalent bond. Bonding pairs or sharing pairs are the names given to these electron pairs.

Covalent bonding is the stable equilibrium of the attractive and repulsive forces between atoms when they share electrons. Through covalent bonding, carbon atoms form four bonds.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

What is the purpose of coolant/coolant pumps in a nuclear reactor? Explain how malfunctioning coolant pumps can lead to meltdown.

Answers

Answer:

The purpose of the reactor coolant pump is to provide forced primary coolant flow to remove and transfer the amount of heat generated in the reactor core. A nuclear reactor coolant is a coolant in a nuclear reactor used to remove heat from the nuclear reactor core and transfer it to electrical generators and the environment. Frequently, a chain of two coolant loops are used because the primary coolant loop takes on short-term radioactivity from the reactor.

interesting facts about index fossils

Answers

Answer:

A good index fossil is one with four characteristics: it is distinctive, widespread, abundant and limited in geologic time. Because most fossil-bearing rocks formed in the ocean, the major index fossils are marine organisms, but certain land organisms are useful in young rocks and in specific regions.

Explanation:

Index fossils are very important to relative dating, as they serve as great time markers because they have a short half-life and are widespread around the world.

Most scientists think that life arose spontaneously from nonliving chemicals in the “primordial soup” of ancient Earth. The formation of life from nonliving material is defined as spontaneous generation. Stanley Miller conducted an experiment to test the hypothesis of spontaneous generation. How did the experiment of Stanley Miller support the hypothesis of spontaneous generation of living organisms?

Answers

Answer:

Stanley Miller created an experiment where he sent an electrical charge through a flask of a chemical solution of methane, ammonia, hydrogen and water . This created organic compounds including amino acids .
