Answer:

250 years

Explanation:

The Atlantic Ocean is not static, but instead it is very active, and it is actually spreading from its central part. In its central part, this ocean has a mid-ocean ridge. This basically means that there is constant formation of new crust from the magma that comes out, and the old crust is pushed sideways as the new one is formed. On an annual level, the mid-ocean ridge is spreading out by an estimated 0.02 meters, thus that is how much the Atlantic Ocean is spreading out each year. In order to get to the result as to how many years are needed for the Atlantic Ocean to spread 500 cm, we just need to multiply the annual spreading with the number of cm in question:

0.02 x 500 =250

Thus we get a result of 250, meaning that in 250 years the Atlantic Ocean will spread out 500 cm in total.

Tropopause is the boundary between the troposphere and stratosphere.

Explanation:

  • Tropopause marks the transition region between troposphere and stratosphere.
  • As we move up from the Earths surface , the temperature gets colder but when we reach the tropopause the temperature becomes constant and the temperature does not fall further.

</span>

Substrate level phosphorylation occurred in kreb cycle inform of metabolic reaction that involve the transfer of phosphoryl group to GDP or ADP from another phosphorylated compound which result into formation of GTP or ATP.

Which metabolic pathway would be utilized for sprinting?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

b) electron transport chain

Explanation:

During sprinting, muscles need a constant supply of ATPs (the energy currency of cells) to support the continuous movement. The electron transport chain is present in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Oxidation of NADH and FADH2 through electron transport chain produces proton gradient across the membrane which in turn drives the synthesis of a large number of ATPs to support sprinting.
