Correct answer: A). Move away from one another

The divergent boundaries are formed when the tectonic plate move away from each other. It forms volcanic islands that occur when the plates move away in order to produce gaps that are filled by molten lava.

The divergent boundary contributes to the formation of seafloor spreading. When the plates that are made up of oceanic crust move away from each other, a crack in the ocean floor appears. Then the magma oozes out from the mantle to fill that crack that results in ocean ridges.

Hence, the correct answer would be option A.

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Controlling the predator population, wolves.

Explanation:

The method followed for the little smoky herd protection was to control their habitat and the population of the predators in the said habitat, which were wolves.

If I recommend the same method as the best way to protect the selkirk caribou, then i would be suggesting controlling the population of the predators in the area, which are mostly wolves, and in this way protecting the population of the selkirk caribou.

I hope this answer helps.

If a true-breeding blue-flowered plant was crossed with a true-breeding white-flowered plant, what phenotypic ratio would we obs
Westkost [7]

Answer:

B. 100 percent white

Explanation:

According to Mendel's law of dominance, the dominant allele of a gene masks the expression of the recessive allele in a heterozygous state. Therefore, when two pure breeding plants that differ with respect to one genetic trait are crossed, the progeny expresses only the dominant phenotype. Here, one allele should be completely dominant over the other. The allele for the white flowers is completely dominant over the allele for the blue flowers.

Let' assume that the allele "W" imparts white color to the flowers while the allele "w" gives blue color. When a true-breeding blue-flowered plant (ww) is crossed with a true-breeding white-flowered plant (WW), the progeny would be heterozygous for the dominant allele "W" and would exhibit "white color of flowers" (the dominant trait).

WW (white-flowered plant) x ww (blue-flowered plant) = Ww (white-flowered plant)

The structure of a human skin cell differs from that of a human muscle cell. The two cells most likely have different __________
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - functions.

Explanation:

The structure of the skin cells and muscle cells are different and have a different number of cell organelles on their role in the body. Skin cells are a special type of cells that keep on shedding and replaced by new ones therefore they need less energy and have many mitochondria.

In contrast, muscle cells have different structures as they need a high amount of energy to make movements and therefore have lots of mitochondria in the cell.

Refer to the paragraph about the formation of the isthmus of panama. the sister populations on opposite sides of the isthmus are
Dimas [21]
The answer is reproductive isolation. Reproductive isolation ensures members of different species do not produce offspring. In this case, geographical separation is ensuring that individuals from the two different populations are not able to mate with each other. Eventually, through different selective pressures, the two populations will diverge sufficiently in genotype to become distinctly different.
