Question 6: Describe a process scientists could use to test your conclusion from Question 5 in order to determine the exact age of the fossil. * ​

Answers

6)You have two options for your conclusions: based on your results, either:

(1) YOU CAN REJECT the hypothesis, or

(2) YOU CAN NOT REJECT the hypothesis.

This is an important point!

You can not PROVE the hypothesis with a single experiment, because there is a chance that you made an error somewhere along the way.

What you can say is that your results SUPPORT the original hypothesis.

If your original hypothesis didn't match up with the final results of your experiment, don't change the hypothesis.

Instead, try to explain what might have been wrong with your original hypothesis. What information were you missing when you made your prediction? What are the possible reasons the hypothesis and experimental results didn't match up?

Remember, a science fair experiment isn't a failure simply because does not agree with your hypothesis. No one will take points off if your prediction wasn't accurate. Many important scientific discoveries were made as a result of experiments gone wrong!

A science fair experiment is only a failure if its design is flawed. A flawed experiment is one that (1) doesn't keep its variables under control, and (2) doesn't sufficiently answer the question that you asked of it.
5) to determine a fossils approximate age by comparing it to similar rocks and fossils of known ages. Absolute dating is used to determine a precise age of a fossil by using radiometric dating to measure the decay of isotopes, either within the fossil or more often the rocks associated with it.

A strand of mRNA that is 450 nitrogenous bases long will produce a protein containing approximately

Answers

Answer:

approximately 150 amino acids

Explanation:

Proteins are produced from genes via a process called gene expression. In this process, the gene-containing DNA is first transcribed into mRNA molecule, which is subsequently translated into an amino acid sequence that makes up the protein molecule.

However, during the translation process, the mRNA molecule is read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON i.e. a codon is made up of three nucleotide/nitrogenous bases. Each codon codes for a particular amino acid.

Since one codon of a mRNA that is three (3) nucleotides long codes for one amino acid, hence, strand of mRNA that is 450 nitrogenous bases long will produce a protein containing approximately (450/3) = 150 amino acids.

Brown eyes in humans are dominant to blue eyes. A brown-eyed man, whose mother was blue-eyed, marries a brown-eyed woman whose father had blue eyes. Figure out each member’s genotype

Answers

Answer:

Man: Bb

Man’s mother: bb

Woman:Bb

Woman’s father: bb

Explanation:

Brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes, so, in order for a person to have blue eyes, they must carry both recessive alleles for blue. This means the man’s mother and the woman’s father must have the genotype bb. The man and the woman on the other hand have brown eyes, which means they got the dominant brown eye trait from their other parent and will have a heterozygous genotype Bb.

In a lake with three trophic levels (non-native fish, zooplankton, algae), an algal bloom occurs when the small population of zooplankton declines due to the predation of the invasive fish. Which of the following describes why zooplankton are the keystone species in this scenario?

Zooplankton are the smallest of all the herbivorous marine mammals in their communities.
The small population of zooplankton have an unequal effect on the marine community.
Marine mammals depend upon the work of zooplankton to convert sunlight into food.
Zooplankton help other populations survive by keeping out other herbivores.

Answers

Answers:

Zooplankton help other populations survive by keeping out other herbivores

Explanation:

This is because a keystone species are species that have large effect on the the habitat and through its effect they help to keep the ecosystem in existence. They make sure that the ecosystem exist. They help populations survive by keeping out herbivores and feeding on the algae. They help drive nutrients cycle and transfer energy from algae to invasive fish.

A park guide tells her that hoodoos like this one have been forming on Earth throughout history. Which principle explains the process that forms these rocks? A. erosion B. deposition C. weathering D. uniformitarianism

Answers

pretty sure it’s b love u bae

The principle that explains the process of forming hoodoos like this one is erosion. Therefore, option (A) is correct.


What is hoodoo?

A hoodoo is a tall and thin rock formation characterized by a column of sedimentary rock that has been eroded over time, leaving a pinnacle or spire-like structure. Hoodoos are typically found in arid or semiarid areas with a high concentration of soft rock such as sandstone, limestone, or volcanic tuff. These formations are often created by a combination of factors such as water erosion, wind erosion, and frost weathering.

Hoodoos can take on various shapes and sizes and may be found singly or in groups, forming intricate and awe-inspiring landscapes. They are commonly found in national parks and other natural areas around the world, including the United States, Canada, China, and Australia, where they attract tourists and geology enthusiasts alike.

Brainlist and 50 pnts for best anwser!! describe the main organs and components of the nervous system

Answers

Answer:

The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, sensory organs, and all of the nerves that connect these organs with the rest of the body. Together, these organs are responsible for the control of the body and communication among its parts.

Explanation:

The central nervous system is so-called because it affects everything in your body. Moreover, the evolution of biology results in something familiar to computer programmers, something which looks a lot like “growth by bug fix”. The result is a highly interdependent system, the components of which cannot be easily teased apart from the others without breaking something, many times fatally. That aside, the nervous system is traditionally divided up between the central nervous system (brain and spinal column) and the periphery nervous system (gut and the extended nervous system). There is some debate whether the gut should be declared a third major component of the nervous system, independent of but highly integrated with the brain through such conduits as the vagus nerve bundles.

Use the model of meiosis that you made earlier in the lesson to explain how crossing over contributes to genetic diversity. How did you modify your model? How do you think crossing over affects the expression of certain traits compared to the cells where crossing over didn’t occur?

Answers

Answer:

Due to exchange of parts of chromosome.

Explanation:

Crossing over is the exchange of segments or parts of chromosome between non-sister chromatids in the meiosis cell division. Due to crossing over, new combinations of genes in the gametes are formed that are not found in both parent which leads to genetic diversity. Crossing over affects the expression of certain traits in the organism because the organism that crossing over have different features as compared to their parents so there is a big difference between organism have crossing over and no crossing over.

Answers

Answer:

-They do not use live viruses

-The vaccine with mRNA never enter the nucleus

-The vaccine ilicits an immune response

-The cell breaks down the mRNA after it delivers its instructions.

Explanation:

mRNA vaccines are a new class of vaccine which can be used to fight against infectious pathogens such as, for example, viruses. These vaccines are based on the design of a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence that is introduced into de body to encode a protein of the pathogen (or even just a fragment of a protein) and consequently elicits an immune response after infection. Since pathogens need to produce many different proteins to be harmful to the host organism, a single mRNA molecule of the pathogen can trigger an immune response but does not cause the disease. mRNA vaccines don't enter into the nucleus of the cells and therefore they never interact with DNA. mRNA vaccines don't need viral vectors (e.g., adenoviruses) to be introduced inside the body. Moreover, traditional vaccines are those that use inactivated versions of the pathogen in order to trigger immune responses.
