Answer:
The oceanic crust is formed by partial melting of the mantle at mid-ocean ridges. The continental crust is formed even more cycles of partial melting over time, resulting less dense rocks.
Explanation:
The mantle, oceanic crust, and continental crust all have different compositions due to a process called partial melting.
This is where you start to melt a rock, but don´t melt it all the way.
When you partially melt a rock, certain chemical elements tend to stay in the solid rock while others tend to go into the melted part.
As a result, the rock that forms from that melt is less dense than the original rock.
If you then partially melt that rock, you get a rock that is even lighter.

Answer:
Explanation:
Australopithecina or Hominina is a subtribe in the tribe Hominini. The members of the subtribe are generally Australopithecus (cladistically including the genera Homo, Paranthropus,[2] and Kenyanthropus), and it typically includes the earlier Ardipithecus, Orrorin, Sahelanthropus, and Graecopithecus. All these related species are now sometimes collectively termed australopithecines or homininians.[3][4] They are the extinct, close relatives of humans and, with the extant genus Homo, comprise the human clade. Members of the human clade, i.e. the Hominini after the split from the chimpanzees, are now called Hominina[5] (see Hominidae; terms "hominids" and hominins).
While none of the groups normally directly assigned to this group survived, the australopithecines do not appear to be literally extinct (in the sense of having no living descendants) as the genera Kenyanthropus, Paranthropus and Homo probably emerged as sister of a late Australopithecus species such as A. africanus and/or A. sediba.
The terms australopithecine, et al., come from a former classification as members of a distinct subfamily, the Australopithecinae.[6] Members of Australopithecus are sometimes referred to as the "gracile australopithecines", while Paranthropus are called the "robust australopithecines".[7][8]
The australopithecines occurred in the Plio-Pleistocene era and were bipedal, and they were dentally similar to humans, but with a brain size not much larger than that of modern apes, with lesser encephalization than in the genus Homo.[9] Humans (genus Homo) may have descended from australopithecine ancestors and the genera Ardipithecus, Orrorin, Sahelanthropus, and Graecopithecus are the possible ancestors of the australopithecines.[8]

Number of neutrons: 8
Mass of neutrons: 16 (AMU if you want the units)
Explanation:
The answer for both the number of neutrons and atomic number is on the top
The mass is at the bottom
Both biome and <span>ecoregion </span>are ecological terms. Biome refers to a major regional group of plant and animal communities adapted to the natural environment. Biome can be of two types: terrestrial(land) andaquatic(water). <span>Ecoregion, </span>which is an abbreviated form of ''ecological region', refers to a smaller class. Each <span>biome </span>consists of severalecoregions, an ecoregion(also called bioregion) covering a realm of land/water having geographically distinctive communities, sharing the same envoronmental conditions and ecological dynamics.
Yes, an ecoregion does consist of different ecologically distinctive communities and species.
