Answer: options C) using fossils, the relative order in which different rock layers were deposited is discernable.

Explanation: This is because from his discovery, he found out that different rock layers contains different fossils.

arsen [322]

Answer: It proposes that the entire double‑stranded DNA molecule serves as a template for a whole new molecule of DNA.

Explanation:

In semi-conservative DNA replication:

- a parent double-stranded DNA splits in two.

- Each strand serves as template, and then read by the enzyme, DNA polymerase, to ensure accurate synthesis of a new daughter strand for both

- the newly synthesized strand contains nucleotides that are complimentary to free nucleotides present in the parent strand.

Thus, because the parent double strand is retained in the newly synthesized DNA, this model is described as semi-conservative

Explanation:

Based on this information it can be said that this formation between the islands and the mainlands will most likely cause an increase in gene flow between the bird populations.

B)plant the flowers out-of doors in november.

C)keep the plants in a warm growing environment.

D)expose the plants to an hour of light in the middle of each night until the end of april.

Solution

Since Chrysanthemum is a short-day plant, its flower mainly develop during night and hence they require long nights of 11 to 12 hours. Blackout system is sometimes used to induce flowering.Flowering can be delayed by regulating both light and temperature. this is done by exposing plants for a short period of time to light (can be artificial) and to some source of heat that produces 85° F or higher temperature.  

Thus if flowers are required in month of may, flowering can be delayed by exposing Chrysanthemums plant to light and heat source during night time

Option D is correct
