    ____________________________ years ago fossils were found in Australia.

    • A.

      4.9 billion years ago

    • B.

      3.5 million years ago

    • C.

      3.5 billion years ago

    • D.

      5.4 billion years ago

    Correct Answer
    C. 3.5 billion years ago
    Explanation
    Fossils found in Australia indicate that life existed on Earth around 3.5 billion years ago. This is supported by scientific evidence and research conducted on these fossils. The age of the fossils is determined through various dating methods, such as radiometric dating, which measures the decay of radioactive isotopes in the rocks surrounding the fossils. These findings contribute to our understanding of the early evolution of life on Earth and provide valuable insights into the history of our planet.

    ______________________ is the quality enabaling organisms to better survive.

    Correct Answer
    adaptaition
    Explanation
    Adaptation is the quality enabling organisms to better survive. Adaptation refers to the process by which organisms adjust to their environment in order to increase their chances of survival. It involves changes in physical characteristics, behavior, or physiology that help an organism to better fit into its surroundings and meet the challenges it faces. Through adaptation, organisms are able to cope with changes in their environment, find food, avoid predators, and reproduce successfully. This ability to adapt is crucial for the survival and success of species in a constantly changing world.

    _____________________________ is the warming of the earth due to build of Carbon Dioxid in the air.

    Correct Answer
    Global Warming
    Explanation
    Global warming refers to the increase in the Earth's average temperature caused by the buildup of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These gases trap heat from the sun and prevent it from escaping back into space, leading to a gradual rise in global temperatures. This phenomenon has various negative effects on the environment, including melting ice caps, rising sea levels, and extreme weather events. It is a significant concern for the planet's ecosystems and human societies, and efforts are being made to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate its impact.

    Explanation
    Homeostasis is the ability of an organism or system to maintain a stable internal environment despite external changes. It involves various physiological processes that work together to regulate body temperature, blood pressure, pH levels, and other variables within a narrow range. Homeostasis is crucial for the proper functioning of living organisms and helps ensure their survival and overall well-being.
