Divergent boundary.

This is the boundary between two tectonic plates move away from each other in opposite directions.

Explanation:

One major example of a divergent boundary is the mid-Atlantic ridge that cuts, longitudinally, across the middle of the Atlantic ocean.

When two tectonic plates move away from each other in opposite directions, the void they leave in between is filled by rising magma from the mantle and cooling to create new crust. A mountainous ridge along a boundary is evidence of a divergent boundary. The Atlantic ocean will therefore continue to widen as the North American and Eurasian Plates move away from each other. As new crust is formed at divergent boundary, old crust is being consumed at convergent boundary on another end of earth. This way tectonic plates of earth renew themselves.

Artemon [7]
<span>Answer: As a flavor enhancer </span>

Glutamate is known to be one of the most free amino acid in bacteria cytoplasm and it is present   in many proteins, tissues and peptides. This amino acid is produced in the body and binds with other amino acids to form a structural protein. However, glutamate is commonly used as flavor enhancer in foods and enhance the savory flavors impacted by glutamic acid.

Discuss the meaning and importance of selective toxicity as it relates to antimicrobials.
Burka [1]
An antimicrobial<span> is an agent that kills microorganisms or inhibits their growth. </span>Antimicrobial <span>medicines can be grouped according to the microorganisms they act primarily against. For example, antibiotics are used against bacteria and antifungals are used against fungi.
</span>
Selective toxicity<span> refers to the ability of the drug to targets sites that are relative specific to the microorganism responsible for infection. Sometimes these sites are unique to the microorganism or simply more essential to survival of the microorganism than to the host.

Selective theory relates to antimicrobial because the antimicrobial is the drug that kills microorganisms and inhibits there growth,  selective theory is the ability of the drug.

How do scientists use seismic waves to determine the interior structure of Earth?
Rom4ik [11]
<span>Much of our understanding of the basic structure and composition of Earth and the other planets in our solar system is not strenuously debated. We can infer a surprising amount of information from the size, mass and moment of inertia of the planets, all of which can be determined from routine astronomical observations. Measurements of surface chemical composition, either by direct sampling (as has been done on Earth, the moon, and Mars) or through spectroscopic observations, can be used to estimate elemental abundances and the degree of chemical differentiation that occurred as the planets condensed from the solar nebula. Remote observations of the gravitational field can be used to understand how a planet's mass is distributed, whereas the strength and shape of the magnetic field provides some constraint on the structure of a metallic core. The specifics of structure and composition, however, are much more debatable. And it is these details that tell us a much more extensive and ultimately more interesting story about the internal dynamics of the planets and their evolution. As a result, trying to determine them is frontier research in almost all fields of earth and planetary science.

Legumes, a type of plant, require Rhizobia, a type of soil bacteria, to survive since these organisms fix nitrogen during photos
Archy [21]

Answer:

rhizobia is an important nitrogen fixing bacteria found in the soil to help grwo plants like legumes. rhizobia enter into a symbiotic relationship withe legumes

Explanation:

rhizobia and legumes coexist by entering into a symbiotic association.  rhizobia is a bacteria that fixes nitrogen molecules for the legumes and in return the legumes provide the bacteria with food and nutrition.

If rhizobia becomes extinct in the near future it would be difficult for plants like legumes to grow as they wouldn't get sufficient nitrogen and nitrogen is an important nutrition for the plant to grow and develop. Thus it can cause rapid depletion or death of plants that need rhizobia to fix nitrogen molecules for them.
