If you're going to ask a question, at least provide the steps or possible answers that you are provided with so that others can help you. Luckily, I know the exact question you are trying to solve. 
The order the steps go in is:
 <span> The oceanic plate would subduct under the continental plate into the asthenosphere. 
From the intense heat and pressure within the mantle, the crust of the oceanic plate would mix with the rock of the mantle. 
Mantle convection would cause magma to rise up through divergent boundaries.</span>

Answer: The entire process is mentioned in  step-wise below-

  1. Firstly, two plates moves opposite to each other, due to this the crust gradually become thin and subsequently rises up.
  2. On continuous thinning of the crust, at one point, the magma will come out to the surface producing a small rift.
  3. Rifting continuously takes place and results in a rift valley,and slowly after millions of years will form an ocean.
  4. Then, the two diverging plate will collide with another oceanic or continental plate, in which the more denser oceanic crust will get subducted beneath the less denser one.
  5. This suducted plate, at much greater depth undergoes partial melting and slowly makes its way up to the crust.
  6. This magma on further pushing towards the surface, initiates sea floor spreading, thus repeating the entire cycle.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

By 16.7% or 0.167 IPM

Explanation:

Substracting the final IPM (6.088) to the initial IPM (5.921) gives us the net difference, which is how much did it increase in IPM. Multiplying this number by 100 gives us the percentual increase in the feed rate.

Answer: Bohr's model (1913)

  Niels Bohr improved Rutherford's model. Using mathematical ideas, he showed that electrons occupy shells or energy levels around the nucleus. The Dalton model has changed over time because of the discovery of subatomic particles.

  Niels Bohr improved Rutherford's model. Using mathematical ideas, he showed that electrons occupy shells or energy levels around the nucleus. The Dalton model has changed over time because of the discovery of subatomic particles

  Dalton's atomic theory proposed that all matter was composed of atoms, indivisible and indestructible building blocks. While all atoms of an element were identical, different elements had atoms of differing size and mass.

  John Dalton

The idea that everything is made of atoms was pioneered by John Dalton (1766-1844) in a book he published in 1808. He is sometimes called the "father" of atomic theory, but judging from this photo on the right "grandfather" might be a better term.
