Answer: Seafloor spreading occurs at <u>divergent plate boundaries.</u> As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense. The less-dense material rises, often forming a mountain or elevated area of the seafloor.
The pH of an amino acid is determined by the nature of the side chains of that amino acid. If the side chain of an amino acid contains amine functional group the amino acid will be basic. The acidic amino acids are acidic because they have carboxylic acid functional groups at their side chain.
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The evidence that would be most useful for making this determination would be to u<span>se radiocarbon dating to determine the age of the rock underlying the ecosystem.</span>. Succession<span> is usually initiated by a significant disturbance of an existing community. Hope this answers the question.</span>

<em>The main direct cause of biodiversity loss is land use change (primarily for large-scale food production) which drives an estimated 30% of biodiversity decline globally. Second is overexploitation (overfishing, overhunting and overharvesting) for things like food, medicines and timber which drives around 20%.</em>
