<span>T he type of selection that favored progressively larger brain size in human evolution is
</span>directional selection. Directional selection is a type of natural selection (besides stabilizing selection, disruptive selection, kin selection,..)<span> in which an extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes. Because progressively larger brain size is an extreme phenotype this is a directional selection.</span>
Answer: D.finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface.
Relative dating refers to the age estimation method in which past events are determined, to compare the age of object, organism, strata or rock with the age of other similar entity. This method gives an approximate or estimated age, it does not provide absolute age.
The older fossils are found in deeper layers of the strata as compared to younger fossils. This represents the geological time and life span of primitive or preexisting organisms. Therefore, according to the given situation, finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface is the best conclusion.
Answer:
Option A, Acquisition
Explanation:
The first stage of learning is known as acquisition. It causes establishment of responses by pairing of Neutral stimulus, conditioning and un-conditioning stimulus. Once the association between a neutral stimulus and conditioned stimulus is established, the responses are acquired.
For example – If a bird is trained to pick a key whenever there is a sound of a bell, then after certain period of time an association will be established between the “ringing of bell” and “picking up of key” activity. Therefore, whenever the bird will hear the ringing sound it will search for key to be picked.
Thus, option A is correct.
The post mortem interval of a body enclosed in a plastic bag could be best estimated by the insects found in the body, in that case forensic science need to listen to what those little creatures have to say, insects could tell if the body has been moved from the crime scene, how long it´s been in an specific place, and how long it´s been since death until found, every group of insects can tell something different, from worms, arachnids to flyes, each one of them has a time to get into the body, so it could tell you for how long it´s been dead.
Answer:
maintain homeostasis
Explanation:
Lizards are poikilothermic organisms, it means that their body temperature varies over the course of the day. There are poikilothermic organisms including lizards that bask in the sun during the morning and evening hours, and thus they can increase the body temperature
