Answer:
(A) Benthic- Benthic refers to the lowest or the bottom zone of the water body such as seas, and oceans. The organisms existing under such extreme pressure conditions are commonly known as benthic organisms. For example, corals and bivalves.
(B) Pelagic- Pelagic refers to the upper top portion of a water body, covering the open sea areas. The organisms existing in this region include dolphins and sharks.
(C) Sessile- Sessile refers to the property where an organism is stationary and cannot move freely from one place to another. These are known as sessile organisms such as coral polyps, Mussels.
(B) Mobile- refers to the property by which an organism can move freely in any direction it wants. For example, fishes, dolphins.
(E) Evisceration- It is a specific type of property where organisms can eject their internal organs in order to protect themselves from predators. for example, Sea cucumbers.
(F) Chitin- Chitin is a hard shell that is present in various organisms, forming its exoskeleton, for defense purposes. For example, arthropods.
The age of oceanic bedrock on either side of a mid-ocean ridge is supporting evidence that at the ridges, tectonic plates are Diverging
.
Explanation:
The underwater mountain range is the mid oceanic ridge, which were formed as a result of plate tectonics. when the convection current goes up in the mantle present beneath the oceanic crust results in the uplifting of the ocean floor.
Which leads to the formation of the tectonic plates through magma, that meet at divergent boundaries. The density and the age and the thickness of these oceanic crust increases due to the distance from the ridges. The mid oceanic ridges has been split on two sides as matching stripes

Answer:
Individuals who are heterozygous for co-dominant traits show in their phenotype both traits, without mixing.
Explanation:
Codominance is a type of inheritance that does not follow the rules of Mendelian inheritance, characterized by the absence of recessive traits and two different alleles for a character that behave as dominant.
Heterozygous individuals can be observed in codominance that show two different characteristics in their phenotype, without mixing, such as cattle with spotted skin or two colored flowers.
