Biology
1 answer:
babunello [35]3 years ago
7 0
An ocean current is any more or less permanent or continuous, directed movement of ocean water that flows in one of the Earth's oceans. The currents are generated from the forces acting upon the water like the earth's rotation, the wind, the temperature and salinity differences and the gravitation of the moon.

What evidence supports Hess's theory of seafloor spreading? Check all that apply.
Zarrin [17]

The direction iron in ocean rocks points

The new crust, formed at constructive/divergent boundary (regarding tectonic plate movement), has band-like patterns that orient in different directions (in alignment with earth's magnetic fields) and visible on the surface. This shows that it is newly made crust made from new magma.

Explanation:

These bands are firmed when the iron minerals in magma orient themselves with the earth's magnetic field before the magma cols into rock and lock the minerals permanently in position. This magma upwells from the mantle to fill the void made when the tectonic plates are moving away from each other.

The earth's magnetic field on the other hand is dynamic. Its angle increases gradually from the true north or south and then flips orientation over several hundred years. The iron minerals therefore will align differently depending on the orientation of the earths magnetic field at the time. This is why the new crust has band-like features visible on its surface.

Know the special characteristics of epithelial cells.
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Functions of epithelial cells include secretion, selective absorption, protection, transcellular transport, and sensing. Epithelial layers contain no blood vessels, so they must receive nourishment via diffusion of substances from the underlying connective tissue, through the basement membrane
