Crust is the the upper layer of the earth. There are two types of crust:

1)Ocean crust

2)Continental crust

Tectonic plate are generally made up of earth crust. The upper layer is mantle.The mantle is the mostly-solid bulk of Earth's interior. .

Crust and the upper layer combined to form lithosphere.They are about 80Km  deep.

The asthenosphere is ductile . They are deformed like silicon polymer in response to the warmth of the earth. The rocks actually flows, when stressed is appiled they are start moving deep interior of earth.

Naily [24]

Answer: A) Layers 1 and 2.

Explanation:

Secondary succession refers to when species of plants and animals come back to recolonise an area that was destroyed by a natural disaster of some sort or human activity that change the makeup of the area but somehow left it still capable of supporting life.

As the species that come during secondary succession come after the land has been destroyed so to speak, they would be the later species to arrive which would mean that when they died they would be the closest to the surface when their body decays.

Secondary succession would therefore most likely be observed between layers 1 and 2.

After incubation, you observe that your streak-plate has heavy, uniform growth but no isolated colonies. Which of the following
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Option 3 and 4 are most likely correct

Explanation:

<em>Option 3</em>: We know that area 1 would contain heavy streaking and not single colonies. Therefore, if the loop crosses area 3 and enters area 1, it will definitely result in heavy streaking again.

<em>Option 4</em>: We always need to sterilize properly the loop when streaking in different areas. If we don't do it, it is possible that the loop contains a lot of bacteria that would be streaked again.

Options 1 and 2 are incorrect because, according to question, there is a uniform growth but no isolated colonies. So, contamination or mixed culture would not produce uniform growth streaking rather mixed with other bacterial types.
