What characteristic most directly distinguishes an angular unconformity from a nonconformity?
An angular unconformity is characterized by tilted or folded sedimentary layers overlain by horizontal layers, indicating a period of deformation and erosion before new deposition. In contrast, a nonconformity is marked by the erosion of older igneous or metamorphic rocks, with younger sedimentary layers deposited on top, showing a gap in the geologic record due to uplift and erosion.
What else can I help you with?
What can directly lead to unconformity on an exposed rock?
Uneven rock layers.
The characteristic of a nerve cell that relates directly to its function in receiving and transmitting nerve impulses is its what?
The characteristic of a nerve cell that relates directly to its function in receiving and transmitting nerve impulses is its king extensions. Cells are limited in size by the rate at which substances needed by the cell can enter the cell through the surface.
Which is NOT a characteristic of a plant's vascular tissue It transports water and food inside the plant or It supports the plant's stems and leaves or It exposes the plant's leaves to the sun or It t?
"it transports water and food inside the plant" is a characteristic as xylem transports water and the phloem transports food in the form of sucrose. "it support the plants stems and leaves" is a characteristic of vascular tissue because the arrangement of the xylem and phloem provide it with strength and therefore support. the last one is then the wrong characteristic.
What kind of transcription does a retrovirus undergo?
A retrovirus undergoes reverse transcription, a process where its RNA genome is converted into DNA by the enzyme reverse transcriptase. This newly synthesized DNA is then integrated into the host cell's genome, allowing the retrovirus to replicate as the host cell divides. This unique mechanism distinguishes retroviruses from other viruses that typically use their RNA or DNA directly for replication.
When the temperature drops below freezing which phase change causes frost to form on the grass?
When the temperature drops below freezing, water vapor in the air undergoes deposition, changing directly from a gas to solid ice crystals. This process forms frost on surfaces like grass and leaves, creating the characteristic frozen white coating.
What can directly lead to unconformity on an exposed rock?
Uneven rock layers.
The characteristic of a nerve cell that relates directly to its function in receiving and transmitting nerveimpulses it its?
The characteristic of a nerve cell that relates directly to its function in receiving and transmitting nerve impulses is its long extensions. The plasma membrane is composed mainly of a lipid bilayer.
What is The factor which most clearly distinguishes this example from music of earlier periods?
Contemporary composers used dissonance without the need to resolve to consonance. The factor which most clearly distinguishes this example from music of earlier periods is the use of extended dissonance which doesn't resolve directly to consonance
What characteristic of a nerve cell that relates directly to its function in receiving and transmitting nerve impulses is its?
long extensions
What structural characteristic definition?
These are either measurable or inferred and contribute directly to a description of the organism(s) of interest.
Is one characteristic that the governments of India China and Japan have in common?
citizens do not directly elect the leader of their country.
Do all animals process food?
One of the defining characteristics that distinguishes animals from plants is that all animals feed either directly or indirectly on other living things.
What is field effect?
Fringing effect is the magnetic characteristic caused by the shape around directly opposing the magnetic surfaces.
What is constuct?
"Construct validity is the extent to which an instrument measures a characteristic that cannot be directly observed but is assumed to exist based on patterns in people's behavior( such a characteristic is a construct). Motivation, creativity, prejudice, bedside manner--all of these are constructs in that none of these can be directly observed and measured" (Leedy & Ormrod, 2010, p. 92)
The characteristic of a nerve cell that relates directly to its function in recieving and transmitting nerve impulses is its?
Accumulation of chemical neurotransmitters and specific protein molecules
What term describes the government of Athens but not Sparta in the fifth century B.C.?
The term that describes the government of Athens in the fifth century B.C. but not Sparta is "democracy." In Athens, democracy allowed citizens to participate directly in decision-making and governance, with an emphasis on equality and participation. In contrast, Sparta was governed by an oligarchic system, with power concentrated in a few elite rulers and a dual kingship. This fundamental difference in political structure is a key characteristic that distinguishes the two city-states.
What is the importance of the characteristic of diaphragm in relation to its function during gas exchanges?
Normal inspiration and expiration is directly related to contraction and relaxation of the diaphragm. This is involuntary act, normally.
