Answer:

Mid Oceanic Ridge (MOR) to Deep-Oceanic trench

Explanation:

As the plate tectonic theory is a continuous process, so at some places, divergent plate movement takes place whereas at other places, convergent plate movement takes place. So from that context we can conclude that initially two plates moves apart from each other, and this plates then collides with the other nearby plates, thereby the heavier one gets subducted beneath the other, forming a deep sea trench.

Wheat production W in a given year depends on the average temperature T and the annual rainfall R. Scientists estimate that the

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

-1.1

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Average temperature is rising at a rate, $\frac{dT}{dt}$ = 0.15°C/year

Rate of change rainfall, $\frac{dR}{dt}$ = - 0.1 cm/year

$\frac{\delta W}{\delta T}$ = -2

$\frac{\delta W}{\delta R}$ = 8

Now,

we need to calculate $\frac{dW}{dt}$

since,

The wheat production (W) is dependent on the rainfall (R) and the Temperature (T)

thus, Using the chain rule , we have

$\frac{dW}{dt}$ = $\frac{\delta W}{dT}\times\frac{dT}{dt}$ + $\frac{\delta W}{dR}\times\frac{dR}{dt}$

on substituting the respective values, we get

$\frac{dW}{dt}$ = -2 × 0.15 + 8 × (-0.1)

$\frac{dW}{dt}$ = -0.3 - 0.8

$\frac{dW}{dt}$ = -1.1

Help i’m confused ???

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

anaphase for the first one be cause the chromosomes are being pulled away by centrioles.

metaphase for the second one because the chromosomes are in the middle and centrioles are attached to them, getting ready for anaphase.

telophase for the third one since the cells are separating.

prophase for the last one.
