7. Stress is the force applied to a rock, which may cause deformation of the rock. There are three major types of stress and go along with the three types of plate boundaries; Compression stress is common at convergent boundaries, tension stress at divergent boundaries, and the shear stress at transform boundaries. In this case the rocks have undergone tensional stresses.

8.  Horst is a raised fault block bounded by normal faults. A horst is a raised block of the Earth's crust that has lifted, or has remained stationary, while the land on either side (garben) has subsided. Therefore the structure labeled A in the diagram is Horst.

9. A Graben; it is a valley with a distinct escarpment on each side caused by the displacement of a block downward. It often occurs side by side with the horsts. Horst and Graben structures indicate tensional forces and crustal stretching. Therefore, the structure labeled B is Graben.

Why are G protein only found in Eukaryote cell ?
Levart [38]

Answer:

they bind to protein-coupled transmembrane receptors with higher complexity than those found in prokaryotes

Explanation:

G-proteins are proteins found inside the cells that function as molecular switches which are activated by binding to guanosine triphosphate (GTP), while they are inactive by binding to guanosine diphosphate (GDP). The G-proteins bind to G-protein-coupled transmembrane receptors (GPCRs) in the cytoplasmic region. The GPCRs are a very diverse group of proteins that are activated by extracellular molecules ranging from small peptides to large proteins, including pheromones, neurotransmitters, light-sensitive compounds, etc, thereby allowing them to respond to diverse stimuli from the extracellular environment. In consequence, it is reasonable to suppose that the signaling pathways in which G proteins are involved have a higher complexity level than those observed in primitive prokaryotic organisms.

How is life on Mars dependent on the actual geography and structure of the planet
OLga [1]
We haven't found evidence of life yet.
But it would be dependent on geography and planet structure because not all places are easy to live in.

The Thompson family has four children , three girls and one boy. what caused this change to occur
netineya [11]
The change where they didn't only have boys anymore but had a boy which was born was more likely due to the fact that there is generally a 50:50% chance of whether a boy or a giril will be born for any given family.
