<span>A significant difference is their relative levels. The elevation difference between continents and ocean basins is primarily the result of differences in their respective densities and thicknesses. They are divided into two categories: mountain belts and the stable interior. That's all I know </span>

Answer:

<u>Isostatic adjustment.</u>

Explanation:

  • This implies the difference between the ocean basins and continental landmass. As if the continents have grown due to acceleration of shelf geosynclines its due to the geosyncline floor could have been grown across the metamorphism.
  • The former silica basements might have been folded during mountain building.
  • Thus it's inevitable that the continents and oceanic basins are now operating in a modified away. The shoreline denudation realm of erosion and deposition is critical for dynamic geology.
  • Sediments are now being carried at greater depths below which is caused by the subcrustal flow or isostatic flow. And these movements are shallow so shallow that they hardly noticed but rotate in a cyclic format.

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Glucose entering the intestines from the villus.This is by active transport.The latter is defined as the movement of molecules and  solutes from the region of lower concentration to the region of higher concentration against the concentration gradient.

Explanation:

All the above options depends on the diffusion gradients from one  higher region to another.e.g oxygen passing from high concentration from outside to lower concentration in blood stream,like wise Co2 from higher concentration from inside to outside,with passive diffusion lipids and water enter the small intestine(note amino acid and glucose,and fructose are different).

Active transport( through sodium dependent transporter) transports glucose to the intestine  from the villus.This is movements against concentration gradient because,glucose molecule are concentrated in intestine,and needed by the cells, in the body.Therefore they must be transported as a fast rate inn the blood .

However the absorption by the villi is very slow,therefore active transport is needed to move these against the concentration gradient into the intestine.And finally the blood.

If this were to be moved by  passive diffusion,the high concentration in the intestine will force this back into the villi

Therefore extra energy is needed by active transport for the glucose molecules to enter the intestine from the villus.
