HELP!!! MEDAL AND FAN!!!!! What can changes in the fossils of a single organism over time reveal? A. how the rock layers were deposited B. how the species evolved C. relative age of the rocks containing the fossils D. how the climate changed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Since this is about how the fossils of a single organism changed, I would say B. how the species evolved. You could technically follow a single organisms evolution by collecting fossils from that organism, if you have fossils in chronological order...does that make sense? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol kinda and thx. could u help me with a few more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it might be B. How the species evolved

OpenStudy (sreekar369):

option c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah sure! @puppylover123

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A geologist finds rocks with dinosaur fossils. What is most likely the approximate age of the rocks? A. 500 million years old B. 1 thousand years old C. 5 billion years old D. 70 million years old

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, dinosaurs first appeared around 231 million years ago.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I would say around 70 million years old, since that's the only one that makes sense :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe D? ya lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which statement about the rock layers in this illustration must be true? A. Layer I is the most recent rock layer. B. Layer C is the oldest rock layer. C. Layer B is the most recent rock layer. D. Layer F is the oldest rock layer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here is the illitration

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where? lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

illustration*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh there it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would say A. None of the other answer are correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which rock layer is youngest? A. Layer I B. Layer D C. Layer G D. Layer A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its the same pic

@lovelylolita55

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ohlookidontunderstandanotherthing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh sorry, I'm here now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's the same answer as the previous question lol Layer I is the youngest because it's at the top.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A saber-toothed cat fossil is found in layer G. This finding indicates that Layers H and I must have formed during what time? A. Paleozoic Era B. Cenozoic Era C. Permian Period D. Carboniferous Period

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lovelylolita55

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the same link

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lovelylolita55

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm A. I think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx anorher

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which example describes a method of relative dating? A. using radioactive isotopes to calculate the age of a rock B. examining historical records to determine when a volcano erupted C. measuring the depth of tree bark D. using fossils to determine the oldest rock layer in a canyon

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not sure I know this one.. I think it may be D. :/ Not sure though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i think so too... i just wanted to make sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which rock layer is the newest and why? Geologic History Unit Assessment, Part 2 Tapeats Sandstone because it is the bottom layer A. Supai Group because it is a middle layer B. Kaibab Limestone because it is the topmost layer C. Hermit Shale because shale is the oldest type of rock D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry here is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hermit Shale because shale is the oldest type of rock D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lovelylolita55

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg im babysitting my bffs hampster and my dog almost killed it!!! im so sad!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Remember, the youngest/most recent layer is always at the top. The kaibab layer is at the very top, so it has to be the newest.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i feel so bad...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I hope it's ok!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it is... its in the corner of its cage shaking...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it has to be alive lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thx btw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If it's upside down, you know it's dead. I hope it's alright in the end! :) You're welcome.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The Tapeats Sandstone is made of sand-sized rock pieces and contains fossils of trilobites. Trilobites were marine organisms similar to modern-day horseshoe crabs. In which kind of environment did the Tapeats Sandstone most likely form and why? Missing Metadata a beach environment because trilobites live in the ocean and there are sand particles in the rocks A. a coral reef environment because the particles in the rock are sand-sized B. a deep sea environment because there are small mud particles in the rocks C. a lake environment because trilobites live in the fresh water and there are small sediments in the rocks D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it isnt upside down and i hope its okay too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

he seems as happy as ever! he's running in his wheel acting fine. hampsters lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok back to science

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hm, well if they were like the modern day horseshoe crabs..where do horseshoe crabs live?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they live primarily in and around shallow ocean waters on soft sandy or muddy bottoms.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep, that's what Wikipedia says LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So can you find the answer based off of that information?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OMG google trilobites..they are gross looking.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hey, I need to go :) I think the answer is A. Be sure to tag me if you have any other questions. I'll help if I can.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for this question Which rock layer is the newest and why? Geologic History Unit Assessment, Part 2 Tapeats Sandstone because it is the bottom layer A. Supai Group because it is a middle layer B. Hermit Shale because shale is the oldest type of rock C. Kaibab Limestone because it is the topmost layer D.Kaibab Limestone because it is the topmost layer it is D
