<span>The correct option from the given options is: "Scientist have determined the composition of Earth's core by using radiometric dating to examine meteorites".
</span><span>To date materials the procedure of radiometric dating or radioactive dating is used, for example, rocks or carbon, in which trace radioactive impurities were specifically fused when they were framed. The strategy looks at the abundance of a normally happening radioactive isotope inside the material to the abundance of its decay items, which shape at a known consistent rate of decay.</span>

elena-s [515]

Answer:

Since albinism is an autosomal recessive trait, it means that both parents must possess the gene for it, for the albinism to occur.

Thus, David could be the father if both Rose and David are carriers(heterozygotes) for the albino allele.

Answer:

This question lacks options; the options are:

A) Artificial selection

B) Stabilizing selection

C) Disruptive selection

D) Directional selection

The answer is D) Directional selection

Explanation:

Changes in the environmenal condition affects the distribution of organisms phenotypes. Via this change, organisms with certain traits are naturally selected. The types of natural selection are; stabilizing, disruptive and directional.

Based on the description of the selection in this question, the type of selection is DIRECTIONAL. Directional mutation is that in which one of the two extreme phenotypes in a population is selected against while the other is favored by the occurrence of a natural environmental hazard. The distribution gradually shifts to favour one extreme over the other until the other unselected extreme gets extincted.

This is the case regarding a population of finches affected by drought caused by flood causing all their food source to disappear leaving only ant hills that certain finches with thin beaks can access. This environmental change favorably selects one extreme phenotype (finches with long thin beaks). Hence, a type of DIRECTIONAL selection
