Answer:

Options (1), (2) and (3)

Explanation:

The earth is comprised of numerous lithospheric plates, which constantly move over the layer of the asthenosphere due to the generation of the convection current in the mantle. This convection current is the main mechanism that drives the plates to move from one place to another with respect to the poles. This current form because of the heat energy radiated from the interior of the earth.

These plates when moves share either of the 3 boundaries with each other, namely the divergent, convergent or transform plate boundary. The divergent motion of plates was responsible for the formation of mid-oceanic ridge, expansion of the seas and oceans. The convergent plate motion gives rise to the formation of the high mountain ranges, volcanoes, and deep-sea oceanic trenches. And the transform plate boundary neither destroys nor creates the crust.

Forest fire is not associated with the plate tectonic movement. It refers to the burning of the forest region either naturally or due to human activities.

Thus, the correct answers are options (1), (2) and (3).

Compare and contrast protozoan cysts fungal spores and bacterial endospores
docker41 [41]

Bacterial spores or endospores are not for reproduction. They do not improve the total number of bacterial cells. Whereas for fungal spores, they are formed from aerial hyphae. They can either be asexual spores which when germinated will be a new but genetically identical to the parent. Sexual spores result from the combination or mixture of nuclei from two opposite mating strains of the same species.
