The Precambrian Era is the least understood part of Earth history, yet it is arguably the most important. It began with the formation of Earth nearly 4.6 billion years ago, and lasted for approximately 4 billion years. During this time, all of Earth’s major systems appeared, such as the hydrosphere, biosphere, geosphere, and atmosphere. The Precambrian Earth experienced impacts by massive celestial objects, the first continents and ocean basins, mobilization of tectonic plates, an oxygenated atmosphere, and the origin and evolution of early life. Not only did life begin and survive during this challenging, harsh time period, but it thrived and continued to evolve. The evidence for the story of the Precambrian era is within Earth’s rocks. Where on Earth’s surface do you think scientists can locate rocks from the Precambrian era? How do scientists determine the age of the rocks they’re analyzing? What types of tests or analyses do you think scientists would conduct on a rock from the Precambrian era? Lastly, how does understanding the Precambrian era enhance our chances of finding another planet that could one day support life?

Neelaredoxin is a 15-kda protein that is a gene product common in anaerobic prokaryotes. it has superoxide-scavenging activity, and it is constitutively expressed. in addition, its expression is not further induced during its exposure to o2 or h2o2 (silva, g., et al. 2001. j. bacteriol. 183: 4413–4420). which of the following statements best describes neelaredoxin synthesis? a-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; levels are constant even when exposed to o2 or h2o2.b-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; exposure to o2 or h2o2 increases expression. c-neelaredoxin is produced at all times; exposure to o2 or h2o2 decreases or prevents expression. d-neelaredoxin is only produced when there is exposure to o2 or h2o2.
