The rate of decay C
To establish the age of a rock or a fossil, researchers use some type of clock to determine the date it was formed. Geologists commonly use radiometric dating methods, based on the natural radioactive decay of certain elements such as potassium and carbon, as reliable clocks to date ancient events.
Answer:
A is the answer, this is because deposition has been happening on earth for ages so as time goes by more deposits form layers on earth, including the remains of animals and plants that would later become fossils.

Which of the following usually indicates stormy weather with clouds and precipitation?
A) Low humidity
B) Low air pressure
C) High air pressure
D) High humidity.
Low air pressure indicates stormy weather with clouds and precipitation. So, the correct option is (B).
How Clouds are formed?Clouds are formed by four processes. They are
1) Surface heating
In this process, the sun heats the earth and thus the air, this warm air rises, expands, and cools which forms the clouds.
2) Mountains and Terrains
Clouds also form when air meets mountains or other topography. The air rises and cools and, again, the air cannot hold all the water it holds when it warms so clouds form.
3) Air masses which are forced to rise and cool
Air is also forced to rise when air in a low pressure system forces air to rise.
4) Cold or warm weather fronts
Weather fronts cause cloud formation Clouds form because warm air rises above cold air and cold fronts form clouds because cold air displaces or lifts warm air.
Thus, Low air pressure indicates stormy weather with clouds and precipitation. So, the correct option is (B).

California’s San Andres fault is known for its earthquakes. The Pacific plate and North American plate are sliding against each other at this example of a strike-slip fault boundary.
What is Strike-slip fault boundary?Strike-slip faults are the vertical or nearly vertical fractures that occur where the blocks have mostly moved horizontally over each other. If the block opposite an observer, then the fault moves to the right, the slip style is termed right-lateral in this case and if the block moves to the left, the motion is termed left-lateral motion of the block.
The cause of the strike-slip fault earthquakes is due to the movement of the two plates which are against one another and the release of built up strain from these plates. As the larger plates are pushed or pulled in different directions they build up the strain against adjacent plates until it finally fails. The Pacific plate and North American plate sliding against each other is an example of strike-slip fault.

PLZ thank and five star
and a brainliest would be nice:-)
Answer: D. the amount of space something takes up
============================================================
Explanation:
For example, if you have a 2 inch by 3 inch by 5 inch rectangular block, then the volume it takes up is 2*3*5 = 30 cubic inches. We can fit 30 smaller unit cubes in this 2 by 3 by 5 block.
Another example of volume would be saying that a container can hold 5 gallons, which is the amount of liquid inside the container when it's completely full.
----------
Extra info:
Choice A is false because a substance that does not have a definite shape would be a liquid. Liquids can flow and form to fit any volume. This also applies to a gas as well.Choice B is false because this refers to a solid. A block of ice has a definite shape which is in a block or cube form. Melting that ice will turn it into a liquid which then doesn't have a set shape.Choice C is false as this likely is talking about temperature. Temperature is the measure of how fast a particle is moving. The faster the particle, the more energy and higher temperature it has. On a cold day, the air particles aren't moving as fast compared to a much warmer day when they speed up more.pleaseeeeeeeee

Which best describes when the body is working on counteracting an effect?
when hormone levels in the body are all equal
during a negative feedback loop
during a positive feedback loop
when the hypothalamus is signaling the pituitary gland
The answer is a negative feedback loop. Negative feedback is used to counteract an effect and achieve back a homeostatic balance. An example of a negative feedback loop is in thermoregulation. When temperatures are too high, the hypothalamus induces body responses such as vasodilation and sweating that enable the loss of excess heat.
