After examining the fossil record, scientists have determined that scorpions today are much smaller than their extinct ancestors. For example, Jaekelopterus rhenaniae, a giant scorpion
species that lived 255 million to 460 million years ago, was 2.5 meters long. Which of the
following conclusions is supported by this information?
F Scorpions living today have increased their numbers since they first appeared.
G Scorpions in the fossil record are smaller than their descendants are.
H Scorpions have changed as a result of natural selection,
J Scorpions do not appear in their original state in the fossil record.

that would be called plucking : )

explanation:

''plucking, also referred to as quarrying, is a glacial phenomenon that is responsible for the erosion and transportation of individual pieces of bedrock, especially large "joint blocks". as a glacier moves down a valley, friction causes the basal ice of the glacier to melt and infiltrate joints (cracks) in the bedrock."

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
