Answer:

b) anticline, syncline, and reverse fault

Explanation:

Compression helps in squeezing rocks together and leads to folding and fracture in rocks.

Anticline, syncline, and reverse fault are geological structures formed due to compression.

A syncline is a geologic fold in which the younger layers appears closer to the center of the structure, Anticline have so many small compression that developed above thrust faults, and reverse fault is a geological structure in which one side appears taller than the other.

Hence, the correct answer is b.

Which element is most likely to replace hydrogen in a displacement reaction?

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: The correct option is (D) lithium (Li).

Explanation: Hydrogen is the element which belong to period 1. The atomic number of hydrogen is, 1

The electronic configuration of hydrogen is,

The number of valence electrons present in hydrogen is, 1.

(A) Helium is the element which belong to period 1. The atomic number of helium is, 2

The electronic configuration of helium is,

The number of valence electrons present in helium is, 2.

(B) Oxygen is the element which belong to period 2. The atomic number of oxygen is, 8

The electronic configuration of oxygen is,

The number of valence electrons present in oxygen is, 6.

(C) Nitrogen is the element which belong to period 2. The atomic number of nitrogen is, 7

The electronic configuration of nitrogen is,

The number of valence electrons present in nitrogen is, 5.

(D) Lithium is the element which belong to period 2. The atomic number of lithium is, 3

The electronic configuration of lithium is,

The number of valence electrons present in lithium is, 1.

From this we conclude that the lithium element has the same number of valence electrons as hydrogen.

Hence, the correct option is (D) lithium (Li).

How does adding and removing heat energy to water affect it’s temperature?

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Usually, when you add energy to a bunch of atoms they move faster and get hotter. Similarly, if you remove energy from a bunch of atoms, they usually move less and get cooler. Because adding heat energy usually results in a temperature rise, people often confuse heat and temperature.

All of the following are true of the thymus gland except that it

Paul [167]

Hello, I figured that the question was missing its options so I went online to find them. Here they are:

All of the following are true of the thymus gland, except that:

A) activates B cells.

B) reaches its greatest relative size during the second year of life.

C) involutes after puberty.

D) produces T cells.

E) lies in the anterior mediastinum

Answer:

The correct answer is: A) activates B cells.

Explanation:

The thymus is a lymphatic organ that is located in the anterior superior mediastinum (a compartment in the thoracic cavity), in front of the heart, with the function to mature T cells (one of the types of lymphocytes, white blood cells very important for the functioning of the immune system).

The thymus is more active and bigger during childhood, when puberty hits it involutes and its functional tissue is replaced with adipose tissue (fat).

<u>B cells are not activated in the thymus, they mature in the bone marrow</u>.
