The answer to this question is

"Scientists can tell by observing the seismic waves that are recorded all over the surface of the earth from distant earthquakes. The seismic waves are reflected (bounced off) layers of different density, and they are refracted (bent) when they enter layers of different density."


Hope it helps!!

Scientists learn about the layers deep within the Earth's crust by studying how seismic waves travel ... Usually, they use seismic waves, which are waves generated by earthquakes

FOR MORE EXPLANTION...JUST A LITTLE MORE

NOT REALLY REQUIRED BUT YOU CAN USE JUST FOR YOUR REFERENCE..

Excellent question! Scientists use waves to study the different layers of the earth. Usually, they use seismic waves, which are waves generated by earthquakes or nuclear-test explosions. The seismic waves are bent, sped up, or slowed down, or even reflected when they pass through the earth's layers. Different types of materials (liquid vs. solid, rigid vs. softer) determine the speed of the waves. Bending of the waves occurs at the layer's boundaries. So, scientists study the path and speed of these waves through the earth to decipher boundaries and the materials that make up the layers.



THATS WITH QUESTION 1
Now 2

Most active divergent plate boundaries occur between oceanic plates and exist as mid-oceanic ridges. Divergent boundaries also form volcanic islands which occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill.




I hoped this helped...

Is extensive loss of hair observed in humans and whales an example of homoplasy or homology? see section 25.1 (page 497) ?
marin [14]
I believe that hair and limbs are homology because all mammals have hair and similar limb structure. Hair loss and social behavior on the other hand are homolasy because not all mammals have them. Homology is the similar traits due to common ancestry while homoplasy is similar traits for other reasons other than common ancestry.

Lantana can cause death in cattle. how long does this process take?
bezimeni [28]
The correct option is C.
Lantana is a tropical evergreen shrub which is usually cultivated as ornamental flowers. It is a plant that threatening livestock especially in Australia. The signs of lantana poisoning in livestock include: excessive skin sensitivity to sunlight, liver damage, yellow coloration of the white part of the eyes, reddening of the eyes, swelling of the ears, etc.
If the poisoning case is severe, the animal death will occur between two to four days, but generally, untreated animals usually die within one to three weeks.

In normal humans, sex cells contain the _________ number of chromosomes.
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: Haploid number

In normal humans, sex cells contain the diploid number of chromosomes

Explanation;

Human somatic cells or body cells are diploid such that they contain two sets of 23 chromosomes which gives a total of 23 chromosomes. Examples of somatic cells in the body that are diploid include, epithelial cells, somatic cells, liver cells, blood cells, nerve cells, etc.

However, mature sex cells are haploid, which means they have one set of 23 chromosomes which means they have 23 chromosomes. Sex cells are the results of meiosis type of cell division in which a diploid cell divides to form four daughter cells that are haploid.
