Answer;

-Skin cells do not need crystallin for their function.

-Skin cells have the crystallin gene but do not express it.

Explanation;

-The crystallin proteins are water-soluble structural proteins that occur in high concentration in the cytoplasm of eye lens fibre cells. It has also been identified in other places such as the heart, and in aggressive breast cancer tumors.

-The main function of crystallins at least in the lens of the eye is probably to increase the refractive index while not obstructing light. The skin cell does not make crystallin protein because the skin cells do not need crystallin for their function and also they have the crystallin gene but do not express it.

Answer:

D) Folded mountain with jagged, rough edges

Explanation:

The incident which happened some fifty million years ago was the collision of the Indian plates and the Eurasian plates thus giving rise to the folded mountains that are characteristic of the Himalayas. Subduction was not possible when these two plates collided because they had the same density.

So, the force with which the two plates collided resulted in the formation of folded mountains that rose upward. The peaks of these mountains were jagged, rough, and uneven.

What would life be like without plate tectonics
emmasim [6.3K]
 It really is impossible to predict such a matter. I mean, think about it, its nearly impossible to think about how earth would be impacted if the heat from the interior of the planet that powers plate tectonics were to suddenly cease to exsist, or if that heat never exsisted in the first place, because that is how planets are formed.
 One thing is certain however, life wouldn't be the same without plate tectonics; in one case, the constont transgression/regression, sue in large part of tectonic forces acts as a evolutionary pump forcing life to evolve. EXAMPLE:  the evolution of plants from marine to terrestrial settings. Without plate tectonics, life would certainly be dramatically different.
