C. at divergent plates
morpeh [17]3 years ago

The correct answer is option C

The formation of new layer of floor in the ocean is called seafloor spreading. It is a geological process which is caused due to the volcanic activity.

In this the new oceanic crust is formed due to the volcanic activity and the older rocks move away from the mid oceanic ridge.

The new layer formed lies in the middle of the ocean and the older rocks or floor moves aside.

This process occurs due to the divergent plates and the gap between them increases forming new oceanic ridge.

Olenka [21]

Answer:

it is located 1000 nucleotides upstream of the gene’s core promoter - true

it is located 1000 nucleotides downstream of the gene’s core promoter- true

it is in the gene’s coding region - False

Explanation:

These enhancers are located 50 or more kilobases from the promoter they controlled upstream from a promoter, downstream from a promoter within an intron, or even downstream from the <u>final exon</u> of a gene which can be thousands of bp away from the gene's core promoter and can also occur thousands of nucleotides away from the gene's core promoter needing the activity of a DNA -bending protein that binds to the enhancer changing the shape of the DNA and allow interactions between the activators and transcription factors.

What is microgravity, and what causes it?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The answer is because they are in free fall. In a vacuum, gravity causes all objects to fall at the same rate. The mass of the object does not matter. If a person drops a hammer and a feather, air will make the feather fall more slowly. But if there were no air, they would fall at the same acceleration.

If the rain forest is farther away from the equator (between the Arctic Circle and the Tropic of Cancer or the Antarctic Circle and the Tropic of Capricorn) then the forest is considered to temperate.
