With regard to the destruction of tropical forests, the focus is often on biodiversity and the impact to these ecosystems. what is a direct benefit to humans that explain why these forests need to be preserved?

Suppose a scientist measures the amount of dna per cell of a particular diploid species at various stages of meiosis. she finds that the meiotic cells contain 3.7 pg , 7.3 pg , or 14.6 pg of dna. match each stage of the cell cycle to the corresponding amount of dna contained within a cell at that stage.

On a recent expedition to a remote region of northern canada, scientists uncovered skeletal remains from about 100,000 years ago. surprisingly, all the skeletal remains, which included many species from differing biological families and spanned about two thousand years, showed evidence of experiencing temperatures in excess of 1000 degrees fahrenheit (or 538 degrees celsius). which of the following, if true, best explains the apparent paradox between the cold environment and the evidence of the bones experiencing hot temperatures? (a) chemical changes that naturally occur during the process of decay in only one north canadian species produce the same evidence of the species' skeletons being exposed to hot temperatures as the expedition scientists found. (b) a little over 103,000 years ago, a large fire is known to have occurred in northern canada. (c) strong evidence exists that as early as 70,000 years ago, homo sapiens around the world relied heavily on fire to cook animals. (d) in the same expedition and in roughly the same layer of excavation, scientists found rudimentary wood cutting and hunting tools used by early humans.

The idea that all living things are made up of cells is considered scientific law. this means the idea is an emerging scientific idea that has a logical explanation. has been tested with similar results at least twice. is supported by scientific consensus and a large amount of evidence. has been rejected only once by the scientific community
