Question 22 (Essay Worth 3 points) (02.01 HC) A prediction of the theory of Plate Tectonics is that new volcanoes can form at th

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

What would be the expected result of the experiment?

For the drawing of the map part, the scientific will find that effectively, a very large number of volcanoes are located near the meeting points of tectonic plates. The volcanoes that aren't now at the edge of the plate were most probably at the moment of their formation, and were moved away by the movement of the plate.

But I doubt the scientist would be able to identify many new volcanoes, because the creation of a volcano isn't something happening overnight.

How would you interpret the results if the scientist observes no new volcanic activity?

I would say that does NOT invalidate the theory because the observation period is extremely short. 10 years is an insignificant amount of time geologically speaking... the study would have to be conducted over at least 1,000 years to maybe have some results at all. Just imagine how many volcanoes there would be if a new one was created every 10 years along the side of a tectonic plate.

What is the relationship between ligaments, bones and joints?

kakasveta [241]

Ligaments connect one bone to another bone. Therefore, they allow a joint to form, because joints are where two or more bones connect.

Take your knee joint for instance (***see attached pic***). The knee joint is formed by the connection of the femur (your thigh bone), the tibia (your shin bone), and the fibula (the other long bone in your lower leg). In order for all of these bones to connect there are many ligaments in the knee joint that keep the bones connected and in place. A well known example of one of these ligaments in the knee joint is the ACL (anterior crucate ligament), which is commonly torn in sports, namely football. Most people have heard of this ligament because it receives a lot of media attention since tearing it can greatly alter or even end professional athletes' careers.

White raven [17]

Answer:

Dexamethasone drug in an individual lowers the level of plasma cortisol by lowering the release of Adrenocorticotropic hormone from the anterior lobe of pituitary gland.But in case of people suffering from Cushing syndrome dose of dexamethasone does not lowers the plasma cortisol level.

Explanation:

Dexamethasone is a synthetic Glucocorticoid.As a result it"s functions will be analogous to that of Glucocorticoid.Dexamethasone generally stimulate the rate of Gluconeogenesis thus increasing the production of glucose.As a result the plasma glucose level is elevated.
