The movement of the ocean's crust

Answer:

<u>When oceanic crust pulls apart magma rises to the surface at the mid-ocean ridges which then spills out to create new bands of rocks at the sea floor.</u>

Explanation:

  • These magnetic strips and flips on the seafloor can be found due to the magma or the lava variations on the surface of the sea bottoms. The patterns that it develops in the ridges results in the form of a band of hard and soft like white and black rocks that magnetically vary in chemical-physical properties.
  • These strips provide evidence of the movement and spread of lava and plate tectonic activities on the ocean floor. As the new rocks are created the alignment takes place and the global orientation of the new crust gets created.
  • As deep oceanic valley forms part of the ridges it pushes the old rocks further below

What is the relationship of nitrogen and grass
fredd [130]

Nitrogen is the major nutrient required by grass and is used to stimulate high growth rates and is key to achieving high yields, however if too much nitrogen is applied this can have a negative effects on quality.

High rates of nitrogen can also cause problems with silage fermentation due to excess nitrate having a negative impact on the fermentation process and will produce silage that is less palatable and the animals will be less keen to eat it.

<span> <span> </span> </span> <span> Nitrate is generally taken up by grasses quicker than it is incorporated into proteins and until used this excess known as luxury uptake is stored in the leaves. Excess nitrate will be present if insufficient time is allowed between application and mowing and can also occur under conditions of poor growth eg low light levels, cool temperatures. It is also a problem if there is a dry spell after application, when nitrate cannot be taken up by the roots, followed by a period of wet weather that results in luxury uptake. The plant cannot convert it to protein quickly enough so it accumulates in the plant. </span>

High rates of nitrogen may cause a reduction in crop sugars as they are used to provide energy for the increased rate of plant growth and for the manufacture of plant proteins and this increased growth rate may in turn lead to lower crop dry matter content although in practice this is often not significant.

Excess nitrate can be avoided by following the Grassland Rule to apply nitrogen at the rate of no more than 2.5 kg N/ha/day.

1. Which offspring are the recombinant offspring in this cross?
muminat
The recombinant offsprings are normally the offsprings containing a combination of the parents allele, result in a genotype that differs from both parents genotype. The phenotype May be different as well although it is likely that the phenotype could be the same as the parents, as seen in the case of heterozygous dominant having the same phenotype as homozygous dominant.

A person who has cerebrospinal fluid draining from the ear probably has a fracture of the __________ bone. occipital zygomatic f
Tanzania [10]

A person who has cerebrospinal fluid draining from the ear probably has a fracture of the temporal bone.

<h3>What is Cerebrospinal Fluid?</h3>

All animals have cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), a transparent, colorless bodily fluid that is present in the tissue that covers their brains and spinal cords.

Specialized ependymal cells in the choroid plexus of the brain's ventricles create CSF, which is then absorbed in arachnoid granulations. About 125 mL of CSF are present at any given moment, and 500 mL are produced daily. The CSF protects the brain inside the skull mechanically and immunologically by acting as a shock absorber, cushion, or buffer. The cerebral autoregulation of cerebral blood flow is another essential role played by CSF.

The ventricular system and subarachnoid space, which are located surrounding and inside the brain and spinal cord, respectively, are occupied by CSF.

Describe two processes of weathering and two processes of erosion that are taking place in Sam's backyard.
nika2105 [10]

Answer and Explanation:

When viewing the image of Sam's backyard, we can see the occurrence of chemical and physical weathering. Physical weathering is caused by the impact of water on rocks, which promotes the breakdown of rock particles. The chemical weathering is also caused by the water that I contact with the rock react with its elements causing chemical reactions that modify the rock.

Regarding erosion, we can consider the erosion by gravity that is common in mountainous regions, like the one shown in the photo. This type of erosion promotes the loss of mass of the rock due to the detachment and rolling of rock particles, due to gravity. We can also notice the rain erosion, created by the impact of water on the rock that detaches the fragments and transports them to other places.
