The answer is D hotter rock rises

Why? Because... While convection is generally discussed as a form of heat flow within liquids and gases, it can occur in solids too. For example, the temperature and pressure conditions in the Earth's mantle allow mantle rock to flow very slowly. Hotter rock gradually rises up and cooler rock gradually sinks down in large convection currents in the mantle.

And because study island....

Answer:

D. hotter rock rises and cooler rock sinks.

Explanation:

We know that as we move <u>towards Earth's center</u>, the <u>temperature rises</u>. This rise in temperature causes rocks to melt (magma). The high temperature and melting of rocks <u>decrease the density of material </u>which makes it <u>move upward</u>. By <u>moving upward</u>, the molten rock <u>starts turning solid</u> and becomes <u>denser again</u>. Here, it <u>sinks back due to gravity</u>. This upward and downward movement of rocks due to density and temperature makes a convection cell.

PS: The formation of convection cells in Earth's interior is also the reason for plate tectonics.

A Tomato Has A Proton Concentration Of 0.00006 M. How Would You Calculate The PH?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Option b. is correct

Explanation:

If hydronium ion concentration H_3O^+ is given then pH is given by -log[H_3O^+]

The hydronium ion refers to the hydrogen ion in aqueous solution.

A Tomato has A Proton Concentration Of 0.00006 M

Here, 0.00006 is equal to 6 × 10^{-5}

So,

pH is given by - log [6 × 10^{-5}]

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: The options are not given, here are the options.

A. One species is much better competitor than the other.

B. Periodic disturbances allow for coexistence.

C. Two species tended to use different resources.

D. The two species experienced interference competition and not exploitative competition.

The correct option C.

Two species tended to use different resources.

Explanation:

From Gause experiments on competing paramecium pairs, He found out that most times both species persisted and sometimes only one did because the two species uses different resources.

Organisms normally compete for limited resources in order to survive and one intend to compete well while other suffer. Both in the case of competing paramecium pairs, the pair use different resources which make the to persist and survive well. Once the resource of one finishes, the other one will persist because it is still surviving on its available resources.
