<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>a. Earth quakes</u> are common.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

"Ring of Fire" is a significant region in the bowl of Pacific Ocean where numerous earthquakes and volcanic ejections happen. In an enormous 40,000 km horseshoe shape, it is related to an about nonstop arrangement of maritime channels, volcanic circular segments, and volcanic belts and plate developments. It has 452 volcanoes.

About 90% of the world's tremors and about 81% of the world's biggest seismic tremors happen along the "Ring of Fire". The Ring of Fire is an immediate aftereffect of plate tectonics: the development and impacts of lithospheric plates, particularly subduction in the northern segment.

The Ring of Fire is a region of tectonic activity. This means that it is an area where __________ are especially common.

A.

earthquakes

B.

droughts

C.

thunderstorms

D.

tornadoes

The Ring of Fire is a major area in the basin of the <u>Pacific Ocean</u> where many <em>earthquakes</em> and <em>volcanic eruptions</em> occur. In a large 40,000 km horseshoe shape, it is associated with a nearly continuous series of <em>oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, volcanic belts,</em> and <em>plate movements.</em>

True or False: Metals have a higher melting point than water.
OLEGan [10]
The more energy needed, the higher the melting point or boiling point . As metals are giant lattice structures, the number of electrostatic forces to be broken is extremely large, and so metals have high melting and boiling points.

i would go with true.

Is the movement of water along the concentration gradient
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

<em>- Is the movement of water along the concentration gradient: </em><em>Osmosis</em><em>. </em>

<em>- Is the use of energy to move the particles against the concentration gradient: </em><em>Active transport</em><em>. </em>

<em>- Is the movement of particles by diffusion without energy: </em><em>Simple diffusion</em><em>. </em>

<em>- Is the movement of particles along the concentration gradient: </em><em>Passive transport</em><em>.</em>

Explanation:

The mechanisms of cellular transport involve all the processes that the cell carries out to incorporate substances into its interior or send them to the extracellular space, through its semipermeable cell membrane.

<h3>- Osmosis</h3>

Is a type of transport that consists of the passage of water from a space with a lower concentration of solutes to one with a higher concentration, in order to reach equilibrium, following a concentration gradient.

The concentration gradient is given by the difference in concentration between two substances, which indicates the direction in which molecules, such as water, should move from one place to another.

<h3>- Active transport</h3>

Unlike passive transport mechanisms, which depend on a concentration gradient that determines the movement of particles, in active transport there are two characteristics that define it:

The passage of substances into the cell against a concentration gradient.

The use of energy to carry out this process.

In this case, the passage of substances through the cell membrane will be according to the requirements of the cell, or when they cannot pass through the membrane.

<h3>- Simple diffusion</h3>

According to the characteristics of the cell membrane, some substances can pass freely through it while others require special mechanisms. When a molecule is able to pass through the membrane without the use of special mechanisms or energy we speak of simple diffusion.

In a cell membrane, whose composition is by hydrophobic or non-polar lipid molecules, simple diffusion allows the passage of non-polar molecules, gases and alcohol.

<h3>- Passive transport</h3>

Refers to the mechanism of entry and exit of substances from the cell that does not require the use of energy.

The mechanisms involved in the passive transport of the cell are simple diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion - which requires special conveyors or channels - and ultrafiltration, which depends on hydrostatic pressure. Examples of substances using this mechanism are lipid molecules, water and electrolytes.
