What type of fault is formed when divergent plate move​

Biology
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
5 0
A divergent boundary or divergent plate boundary (also known as a constructive boundary or an extensional boundary) is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other. Divergent boundaries within continents initially produce rifts, which eventually become rift valleys. Most active divergent plate boundaries occur between oceanic plates and exist as mid-oceanic ridges.[1][2] Divergent boundaries also form volcanic islands, which occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps that molten lava rises to fill.

Members of which phylum establish a successful symbiotic relationship with the roots of trees?
Alchen [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is Glomeromycota

Explanation:

Arbuscular mycorrhizae are characterized by the formation of unique structures, arbuscles, coils and vesicles of fungi of the phylum Glomeromycota. They are a type of endomicorrhiza in which the fungus penetrates the cortical cells of the roots of a vascular plant.

In this symbiotic association, the fungus helps the plant to capture nutrients such as phosphorus, sulfur, nitrogen and soil micronutrients. It is believed that the development of symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizae played a crucial role in the initial colonization of the earth by plants and in the evolution of vascular plants.

This symbiosis is a highly evolved mutualistic relationship found between fungi and plants.
