Answer:

Mantle.

Explanation:

The mantle is present between the earth's crust and the core. It is not a static layer. The upper part of the mantle is called the asthenosphere which changes its shape with temperature and pressure. It is not a rigid layer. Any changes in the inner layer of the mantle cause the movements in asthenosphere plates. This is called the plasticity of the mantle. The convection is a process, where high temperature causes the movement of atoms. The atoms move from high-temperature region to the low-temperature region and thus a cyclic movement happens in the inner mantle. This causes the changes in the plates location of the upper mantle.

mina [271]

Answer:

a) Genes b and c are farthest apart.

Explanation:

Transformation occurs when a competent bacteria cell takes up genetic material from the environment. Usually a donor cell donates its gene fragment  which is then incorporated into the chromosome or plasmid of recipient bacterial cell.

Cotransformation occurs when two genes are taken up together by the recipient. The closer the genes lie to each other, more are the chances of them being taken up together. Contransformation frequency will be higher if two genes are close to each other. Here, cotransformation frequencies between three genes are given. Amongst them, the lowest frequency is 0.0064% which is present between gene b and c. Hence, gene b and c are the farthest apart.

The amount of energy required to heat 0.5 kilograms of water until the temperature increases 12° C is about
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Q = 25104 / 4.184 = 6000 Calories or 6 Kcal

Explanation

Energy can be calculated by the equation

Q = m x Cp x delta T

where

m = mass = 0.5 kg

Cp = specific heat of water = 4184 J

Delta T = 12 degrees

Multiplying all

Q = 0.5 x 4184 x 12 = 25104 Joules

Converting it to Calories

Q = 25104 / 4.184 = 6000 Calories or 6 Kcal
