Answer:

Taphrogenic process

Explanation:

Taphrogenic process is defined as the process by which the continents move apart, forming a rift, that eventually leads to the formation of an ocean basin. It is often associated with faulting and subsidence of rocks. It was first introduced by a German geologist named Henning Illies, who studied on the formation of rifts.

This process occurs in a divergent plate boundary, where the two plates move in the opposite direction, where the main driving force of this plate motion is the convection current that forms in the mantle.

Thus, the plate divergence can be considered as a taphrogenic process.

Why is it impossible to predict the phenotype of the offspring by observing only the phenotype of the two parents?
igomit [66]

Because some trait's phenotypes don't indicate their genotypes so in order to predict the phenotype of the offspring you have to know the genotypes of the parents

In other words, white blood cells that help fight of illness in the immune system.

calcium signaling in individual app/ps1 mouse dentate gyrus astrocytes increases ex vivo with aβ pathology and age without affec
irakobra [83]

Astrocytes are a group  of cells with functional characteristics and distinctive morphological that vary within specific areas of the brain.

For healthy brain function, astrocytes are essential. those become reactive in the case of Alzheimer's disease, which impacts the signaling properties. while experimenting, there was the measurement for instinctive calcium transients ex vivo in hippocampal astrocytes in brain slices containing the dentate gyrus of  9-month-old  and 6-month-old APPswe/PSEN1dE9 mice. when they investigated the duration of calcium transients and frequency concerning amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology, the proximity of the astrocyte to Aβ plaques, and aging. there was no change in spontaneous calcium-transient properties of 6M APP/PS1 astrocytes compared to wild-type astrocytes, whereas there was hyperactivity in 9M APP/PS1 astrocytes compared to wild -type,  which were longer in duration, also there was an effect of aging too, there was an increase in calcium in the 9-month astrocytes than to the 6-month astrocytes, also there was an increase in the calcium waves in the 9-month astrocytes because of the increase network activity. The findings were that the change in calcium signaling in individual astrocytes of APP/PS1 mice is because of both pathology and aging but these don't have any impact on changes in the astrocyte network activity, which leads to helping to understand changes in neuronal physiology.
