Question 2
Advances in technology enable archaeologists to gather evidence that is not visible to the naked eye. One example of such microscopic evidence is the study of
A. phytoliths, microscopic organic remains of common early plant domesticates.
B. starch grains that solidify into crystals and therefore do not decay.
C. microanthropometric remains.
D. microstratigraphic layers.
E. phytoliths, microscopic crystals found in many plants that are inorganic and do not decay, which means that they can reveal which plants were present at a given site even when no other plant remains survive.
More than 1,000 different proteins from E. coli can be resolved using this technique
