B, C & D

Features that are formed when oceanic plates converge are correct.  Earthquakes, Mountains & Volcanoes

Explanation:

When two tectonic plates collide this is called a convergent boundary. One tectonic plate, usually the oceanic plate, is denser than the other tectonic plate, usually the continental plate. Therefore the oceanic plate gets subducted under the continental plate. Due to the enormous stress between the plates as they slide over one another, the region is prone to high magnitude earthquakes. This stress also causes fissures to form along the boundary on the overlying tectonic plate and the two plates to warp downwards forming a oceanic trench.

As the subducted plate ‘dives’ into the mantle, it melts and the magma rises through the fissures with great pressure. At the surface, the magma erupts violently forming volcanic mountains. Because several volcanic mountains will form at fissures along the boundary a volcanic arc is a signature feature of a convergent boundary.

Like you might have studied. Heated hair expands while colder air contracts. So, the sound isn't able to move as efficiently in cold air than it would in warmer air.

How would cellular respiration cause a loss in mass in the organis?
Rufina [12.5K]
Cellular respiration is the process by which living organisms convert their chemical energy from nutrients into ATP. Cellular respiration is one of the major ways by which living organisms release chemical energy to drive chemical activities. Cellular respiration cause loss in dry weight. This is because, during cellular respiration there is release of energy from the living organism, carbon dioxide and oxygen are also exchanged. The energy that has to be spent during respiration is responsible for the loss in mass in living organisms.
