Ineed asapfossils in early earth history are rare, while there are many fossils in rocks from the phanerozoic eon. what does this evidence suggest? question 7 options: a. there was no life prior to phanerozoic. b. there was a major change in the diversity of life in the phanerozoic eon. c. the rocks from the phanerozoic eon are much harder than those from other time periods. d. there was no change in the diversity of life in the phanerozoic eon.

Examine the two squirrel populations in the accompanying figure. the populations are separated by a geographic barrier. if after a long period of time the two species are no longer separated, what evidence is needed to determine if speciation has occurred? the figure shows two populations of squirrels separated by a geographic barrier. examine the two squirrel populations in the accompanying figure. the populations are separated by a geographic barrier. if after a long period of time the two species are no longer separated, what evidence is needed to determine if speciation has occurred? the figure shows two populations of squirrels separated by a geographic barrier. polyploidy is creating new species. the two populations are not interbreeding freely. hybrid offspring of the two populations begin to appear. one species will increase into a population size twice as large as the other species.

Read this summary of a scientific theory: "cells are the most basic structural and functional units of life. all living organisms are made up of one or more cells. all cells that are alive in the world today came from pre-existing cells." which of the following would require this theory to be modified? -a.) a survey finds that a majority of people believe viruses carry out the basic processes of life. -b.) a prominent scientist says she feels strongly that one day the theory will be challenged by life on other planets. -c.) the dna of unicellular and multi-cellular organisms is shown to have many fundamental similarities. -d.) scientific observations show that microscopic organisms living in the deep ocean are not made up of cells.

What is a population? a. all the members of the same species living in the same ecosystem at the same time b. the number of a species living in the same ecosystem over a period of time c. the total number of organisms living in an ecosystem at a point in time d. all the members of a food web in the same ecosystem
