1 answer:

8 0

Cell division serves as a means of reproduction in unicellular organisms through binary fission. In multicellular organisms, cell division aids in the formation of gametes, which are cells that combine with others to form sexually produced offspring. For growth to occur in living organisms, the number of cells have to increase through cell division until it reaches its maximum size.

The human body also repairs injuries by means of cell division. When skin is cut, the skin cells on either side of the cut divide to make new cells that heal the wound.

Please help!! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST !! Can you figure out the modern spreading rate of the Mid- Atlantic ridge? Use that line t

Naddik [55]

Answer:

R = 16mm/y

Explanation:

Modern Spreading Rate (R) = distance the seafloor moved in km (d) / age in million years (t)

R = d/t

To calculate it in millimeters per year we need to convert it:

1 km = 1000 m

1 m = 100 cm

1cm = 10mm

1 km = 1,000,000 mm

The problem states that in 150 million years, there is a distance of 2400 km.

if 1 km ------- 1,000,000 mm

2400 km-------X = 2400,000,000 mm

If 1 million years -------1,000,000 years

150 my----X = 150,000,000 years

R = d/t

R = 2400,000,000 mm/150,000,000 y.

R = 16mm/y
