When talking about evolution, a good example is bacterial resistance to antibiotics.
We start with a bacteria colony, and in contact with antibiotics, most of them die.
Some of them in the colony do not die and took that antibiotic to create a mutation of its DNA to be resistance to that.
They evolved survive that antibiotic.
Answer:
Is this a question? I don't understand
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is option 2. "Scientists use seismometers to measure the earthquake activity that occurs beneath a volcano. They then predict the eruption of that volcano".
Explanation:
A seismometer is an equipment used by scientists to monitor ground's motion, including the earthquake activity that occurs beneath a volcano. These instruments are useful to predict if a volcanic eruption is imminent. By analyzing the length and strength of the ground's motion occurring during earthquake activity near a volcano, scientist could predict if an eruption is about to take place.
Answer:
A. It contains fewer volatile gases.
Explanation:
Mafic lava have a composition of about 45-55% silica with high amount of Fe, Mg, Ca.
The silica content is quite low compared to those of granitic magma whose silica content can reach up to about 60%.
What determines the viscosity of magma is basically the silica content of the magma and the temperature of the magma. Viscosity is the resistance to flow.
The higher the silica content, the lower the viscosity and the higher the amount of volatile gases. Such type of magma is the granitic magma. Granitic magma due to their viscosity flows slowly.
The lower the silica content, the higher the viscosity and the lesser the presence of volatile gases in them. Such an example is Mafic magma. Mafic magma flows very slowly with low amount of dissolved gases.
