In the 1960s Hess proposed that the crust separates along the rifts in the mid ocean ridges and that new seafloor forms by upwelling of hot new crust into these cracks. Magnetic anomaly patterns on the sea floor provide evidence. They are peculiar banded magnetic patterns found on the sea floor. By using the age of magnetic reversals they could calculate the rate of seafloor spreading using the equation speed=distance/time. Another line of evidence is the fact that rocks closest to the spreading ridge are younger and older rocks are further away. <span />

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Mechanisms are activated where it is sought to lower the amount of free protons in the blood, that is, to reduce acidity, these mechanisms work between two large systems, the receptor system, the respiratory system and the renal system.

Explanation:

When a metabolic acidosis is entered, either by a food, or by a disease or even an intense physical activity, the lungs seek to generate hyperventilation, to increase the concentrations of oxygen in plasma and absolutely decrease the carbon dioxide concentration, thus not the blood becomes even more acidic.

On the other hand, the digestive system together with the sensory system, will warn this proprioception of the acidity of the plasma and will promote the dilution of these acids with a solvent, which is water, promoting the sensation of thirst.

Finally, the kidneys will seek to retain all the alkaline solutes to neutralize the physiological internal pH, and will release through the urine and the channels of acidic compounds, the products or acid metabolites to the external environment, that is, acid urine excretion.

what types of data would a meteorologist need to collect to demonstrate the presence of a cyclone in a specific region?
nevsk [136]

Answer:

Surface temperature and lower air pressure.

Explanation:

Surface temperature and lower air pressure are the types of data would a meteorologist need to collect in order to demonstrate the presence of a cyclone in a specific region. For the formation of cyclone, warm and moist air is required so surface temperature and lower air pressure are the data that gives information that the cyclone is present in a particular area or not.

Describe three types of relationships between organisms found within an ecosystem. How is energy transferred in each type of rel
maks197457 [2]
Well, there's producers and consumers. There is also one provider that is the main source of energy for all living things which is the sun. The sun provides sunlight for the producers to make their own food through photosynthesis then consumers come and eat the producers(plants) and that gives them energy. And then predators come and eat that animal and that provides their energy.
