Answer:
The correct answer is B. <em>Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean</em>
Explanation:
When two oceanic plates collide, it occurs oceanic convergence. The thicker and older plate subduces under the other plate, and at this point, it starts the volcanic activity. As the thicker plate descends, it is heated and melted and its materials are incorporated into the mantle. The fast subduction originates magma that ascends to the surface by crevices. This makes place to the formation of grouped volcanic islands, the island arches. Subduction zones coincide with deep-sea trenches or depressions in the ocean bed. The volcanic islands are arranged in a circumference arch shape, which is bordered by a fossa. Most of these are located in the western Pacific, where the pacific crust is older and thicker, and hence it submerges easier in the mantle.
The Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean are examples of these volcanic islands.
Meiosis plays a role in reproduction.
Answer: D. have many shared characteristics.
Explanation:
By definition, animals in the same genus have many shared characteristics because it is a term used to classify a group of animals that have similar traits and characteristics.
Examples of animals in the same genus include dogs, wolves and coyotes. They are in the Canis genus and one needs to but look at any of these animals to see that whilst they are not of the same species, they do have very similar characteristics.
Answer:During the second and third trimesters of
gestation androgenic C19 steroid, and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), are secreted by the fetal adrenal gland and human placental lactogen (hPL), is secreted by the placenta.
Explanation:During midgestation, the fetal zone occupies 80–90% of the cortical volume and produces 100–200 mg/day of the androgenic C19 steroid, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S), which is quantitatively the principal steroid product of the primate fetal adrenal gland throughout gestation. While human placental lactogen (hPL) may be secreted preferentially into the fetal circulation, exerting growth-promoting effects at a time when the rate of linear growth of the fetus is maximal.
