Correct answer is B.

Explanation:
In their nucleus cells contain DNA. The DNA has information about size, shape and function of each cell. When the cell reaches it's full size it stops growing and starts doing whatever it's function is. If more cells are needed then the cell replicates. This explanation excludes answers A and C.

Male and female sexual cells are used to conceive a baby. These cells combine to form a new type of cells. In the first few weeks all types of cells are created. Then the creation of new types of cells stops and existing cells multiply in order to achieve needed number of cells. This explanation excludes answer D.

When we compare an adult person and a baby we can see that, for example, an adult has bigger bones than a baby. This was result of increasing number of existing types of cells without creating any new type.

What landforms are created by divergent boundaries
kvasek [131]

Answer:

New crust, sometimes islands/mountains

Explanation:

Divergent boundaries are when two tectonic places are moving away from each other. In the current configuration of Earth, that happens in the ocean.

When plates move away from each other, they leave a gap.  That gap is filled with lava that solidifies quickly and forms now crust.  If the ocean floor is relatively shallow, and the lava pressure is big enough, that can lead to the formation of new islands, mountains/volcanoes on top of the gap.  That's basically how the Galapagos islands were created.

In the last few thousand years, sea-level changes have resulted from all but ________. in the last few thousand years, sea-level
ad-work [718]
The correct answer is - the change of the total volume of water in the Earth's system.
The total volume of the water in the Earth's system is pretty much the same, and for it to change, and change the levels of the water in the oceans and seas, the Earth will have to go over a totally new conditions where either a new influx of water will reach our planet, or the heat will increase and the water will evaporate, for now that is not a possibility.

What planet can come closest to the earth in its orbit and look brightest in our skies?
Naya [18.7K]

Venus can come closest to the earth in its orbit and look brightest in our skies.

Venus is extremely bright because it is the nearest planet to Earth and because most of the sunlight that reaches it (about 70%) is reflected back into space by its thick clouds. The brightest object in the sky, Venus is frequently seen within a few hours after sunset or before sunrise.

The Earth and Venus is 38 million kilometres away at the closest point of opposition. This is the planet's closest approach to Earth. Venus has never travelled more than 261 million kilometres from Earth. the fact that the distance between Venus and Earth may change by a staggering 223 million kilometres.
