Answer:

Hello!

The answer is B. It is made up of amino acids.

Explanation:

Collagen:

Collagen is the most abundant protein found in mammals and makes up 25%of the entire protein count. Collagen is mostly present in the form of collagen fibers which give the extracellular matrix structure and support.

Amino acids:

Amino acids are organic molecules that possess the amino (-NH2) functional group. Amino acids are the building block of proteins. They combine together through peptide linkages to form polypeptides and polypeptides link together in the form of complex proteins.

Collagen possesses a complex structure of amino acids arranged in three alpha-chains wound around each other to give a triple-helix.

Tectonic plates are pieces of the ________ that float on the more fluid ________ below. A. mantle; crust B. asthenosphere; litho
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The answer is E.) Lithosphere, Asthenosphere.

Explanation:

Tectonic plates belong to the layer called Lithosphere. The tectonic plates float on the Asthenosphere which is below the Lithosphere and more fluid than the crust.

From the Earth's surface to the its center we can say that the inside of the Earth is divided into four layers which, starting from the top , are:

i) the crust

ii) the mantle, (Lithosphere, Asthenosphere , Mesosphere)

iii) the outer core

iv) the inner core.

The tectonic plates are part of the Lithosphere and are constantly moving even though the crust is fairly solid. This is because the inner layers

( Asthenosphere , Mesosphere) are much are fluid and are constantly moving which tends to move the tectonic plates. When the tectonic plates collide they do so with tremendous force which leads to earthquakes and sometimes tsunamis as well resulting in a loss of life and property.
