A team of scientists are studying three different layers of sedimentary rock to learn about a particular reptile species. In the

layer of rock that is closest to the Earth's surface, the reptiles' teeth fossils are found to be short and straight. In the layer below, the reptiles' teeth fossils are found to be long and straight. In the layer below that, the reptiles' teeth fossils are found to be long and curved. Based on this information, the reptiles today most likely have

The answer is <u>short, straight teeth.</u>

<u>Sedimentary rock forms in layers over time. As time passes, new layers form upon the older layers. This means that as time passes, fossils are buried deeper and deeper in the ground. Therefore, fossils found in higher layers of sedimentary rock are newer than fossils found in lower layers of sedimentary rock. </u>

<u> </u>

<u>Since the layer of sedimentary rock that is closest to the Earth's surface contains short, straight teeth fossils, the reptile species is most likely to have short, straight teeth today. </u>

NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers that donate their electrons to the electron transport chain. The electrons ultimately
maria [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

NADH and FADH2 are both electron carriers of the electron transport chain. NADH gives up its electrons starting from Complex I, which has a higher energy level compared to other complexes. Energy is given off to pump protons across the membrane by the time electrons are transferred to ComplexIII. More electrons are pumped across the membrane as electrons move to Complex IV. Because NADH commenced giving up its electrons from Complex I (higher energy level complex), more protons are pumped across the membrane gradient, which enables ATP synthase with more power to produce 3ATP molecules per NADH molecule.

On the other hand, 2 molecules of ATP are generated by FADH2 because it starts by giving up its electrons to ComplexII. It missed a chance to pump protons across the membrane when it passed Complex I. By the time the electrons reach Complex IV, less protons have been pumped. The lesser the protons to power ATP synthase, the lesser the ATP molecules produced.

This image shows the various forces acting on a block of rock situated on a rock slope. What does arrow 4 represent?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

4 is gravitational force

Option B

Explanation:

This is a force diagram of a block on an inclined plane.

The force component is what makes up weight in the diagram. Weight is given as mass multiplied by the gravity.

Gravitational force acts downward and it is the force of attraction between all objects and the earth. It is directly proportional to mass.

Force 1 and 2 are both shear forces that acts parallel to the face of the incline. They are mostly expressed as frictional forces.
