No they have flippers but don't have knees

Yes. Penguins do have knees.

A penguin's leg is composed of a short femur, knees, tibia, and fibula.
It may seem that penguin's don't have knees when they waddle. This is because the upper leg bones of penguins are covered by its feathers, making it appear as though they have very short legs.

Why is it important to study the theory of plate tectonics and continental drift?
Dvinal [7]
It is practical knowledge in the sense that we know why some parts of the world are inherently risky to live in. Even though volcanic eruptionis, earthquakes and tsunamis are difficult to predict, it makes sense to have building codes and emergency plans that take this into account.

It is science’s response to the beliefs that natural catastrophes (volcanism, earthquakes and tsunamis) are divine punishments for the evil ways of some individuals.

Even if you will never use or apply this knowledge, knowing about the theory of plate tectonics gives you a current scientific perspective on what we know about the natural world.

It is a good example of how scientific theories proceed by trying to fit several observations into a coherent explanation.

Learning about the observations that needed to be made and explained for the theory to win over scientists helps caution you against people who adopt belief systems without questioning the myths told to them, or those who try to profit from ignorance of how nature actually works.

When it is well taught, it should convince you that, like any scientific theory, plate tectonics is a “work in progress”. New discoveries continue to be made, and it takes creative and logical thinking, debate and a quest for more observations in order to determine which ones prove or challenge the current theory and which ones may lead to its refinement.

Use the drop-down menus to complete each sentence.
suter [353]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - 1. group 2.period 3. less 4. more

Explanation:

elements that have a place with same group contains same number of valence electrons. Thus, they will in general show comparable chemiccal properties.  

At the point when we move over a period at that point number of electrons get added to a similar shell. Therefore, there will be no expansion in size of elements.  

Additionally, metals are the elements that have a place with group 1, 2 and d-block group are otherwise called metals. Metallic character of elements diminishes when we move left to directly in a periodic table.  

As most responsive metals are put on the left half of occasional table.  

Since, size of elements increases on descending the groups. Along these lines, a elements can lose its valence electrons due to the less forrce of ttaraction between valence electrons and its neucleus.
