Answer:

Option D, Between converging oceanic and continental plates

Explanation:

Subduction zones/boundaries are formed in the regions in which one tectonic plate slips below the other tectonic plates. These tectonic plates could be a pair of oceanic/continental plates or one oceanic and one continental plate.

In a converging process, two tectonic plates move towards each other until they collide thereby causing slipping of one plate below the other. While in a diverging process, the two tectonic plates move away from each other and hence there is no chance of formation of subduction zone.

Thus, option D is correct.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

ZZ species will take more number of crosses to produce a recessive offspring.

Explanation:

Here Z seems to be the dominant allele.  A species having ZZ or homozygous dominant genotype shall not express the recessive phenotype until unless it has both recessive allele and this is not possible as of now or is dependent on the genotype of mating species and the number of generations of development.

If ZZ mates with WW, the offspring in F1 generation will have genotype ZW

However, if the offspring in the F1 generation are crossed then in next generation we could see organism with recessive phenotype i,e WW

ZW*ZW

ZZ, ZW, ZW, WW

While in case of organism having ZW type genotype, recessive phenotype will occur in the first generation cross with the ZW.

Describe what occurs to a molecule of the enzyme trypsin AFTER it binds to a molecule of protein?
Yakvenalex [24]
<span>Enzymes are crucial contributors to protein digestion. Protein-digesting enzymes are referred to as proteinases or proteases. Protein generally takes the form of very complex molecules arranged in chains of amino acids. So the bonds binding these complex molecules together must first be broken down
