Answer:

2.compare a layer at one location to layers at other locations

Explanation:

Comparing rock layers in distant places can be a challenge for geologists since these layers may have different environmental factors that caused different transformations in them.

Therefore, when it is necessary to establish a comparison between layers of rocks in different ligands, geologists must establish steps to make an efficient comparison and have results consistent with reality. To do this, they must first compare a layer in one location with layers in other locations, assign relative age to a layer in one location, and identify index fossils in one or more layers in one location.

Where would you expect to find the simplest body<br> plans?
Y_Kistochka [10]
Most sponge body plans are slight variations on a simple tube-within-a-tube design. which of the following is a key limitation of sponge body plans? sponges lack the specialized cell types needed to produce more complex body plans. the reliance on osmosis/diffusion requires a design that maximizes the surface area to volume ratio of the sponge. choanocytes must be protected from the hostile exterior environment. spongin cannot support heavy bodies.

Find two other examples of compounds that biomagnify. Explain how each compound and/or toxin enters the biosphere and what impac
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1. DDT (

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) with molecular formula; C14H9Cl5

2. Lead

Explanation:

1. DDT (Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) is an example of compounds that biomagnifies in the biosphere. DDT is used as pesticides. When DDT is sprayed on plants to kill their pests, part of it is accumulated within the plants.

However, when primary consumers feeds on the affected plants, DDT is passed on to them and then to the secondary consumer in that sequence until it get to the top of the trophic level.

Effects of DDT have been seen in many organisms including birds and humans. The effects seen in humans is quite minimal to that of insects and birds. DDT causes lost of many insects and young birds. In humans, it causes vomiting, seizures etc.

2. Lead: it enters the biosphere by absorption and consumption means. Humans through the use of lead paint, smoking of cigarettes, use of cosmetics and combustion of coal accumulates lead in their bodies. Lead can't be synthesize by human, therefore it accumulates and biomagnify within their systems.

The effects of lead in human include; vomiting, stroke and abdominal pains. In tough scenario, it causes immune system deterioration and cardiovascular diseases.
