B. It is rigid it is important becuase it keeps the plants structure and it allows the plant to stand upright.It is not a fluid and because it is rigid it does not stretch.It cannot be C. because the cell wall is made of cellulose and it is a non living maerial therefore it cannot be alive
Oceanic lithosphere consists mainly of mafic crust and ultramafic mantle (peridotite) and is denser than continental lithosphere, for which the mantle is associated with crust made of felsic rocks. Oceanic lithosphere thickens as it ages and moves away from the mid-ocean ridge. This thickening occurs by conductive cooling, which converts hot asthenosphere into lithospheric mantle and causes the oceanic lithosphere to become increasingly thick and dense with age. In fact, oceanic lithosphere is a thermal boundary layer for the convection[9] in the mantle. The thickness of the mantle part of the oceanic lithosphere can be approximated as a thermal boundary layer that thickens as the square root of time.
The answer is C. Genetically diverse offspring.
