Describe the difference plate boundaries?

Biology
1 answer:
Karolina [17]4 years ago
5 0

There are four types of plate boundaries:  

Divergent boundaries -- where new crust is generated as the plates pull away from each other.  

Convergent boundaries -- where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another.  

Transform boundaries -- where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other.  

Plate boundary zones -- broad belts in which boundaries are not well defined and the effects of plate interaction are unclear.

If you put a cell in pure water, will the cell shrink, stay the same size, or swell? Why?
Maslowich

Answer:

swell

Explanation:

the cell will swell and become turgid as more water will be absorbed into said cell. this process is called osmosis, where water passes through a partially permeable membrane.

1.What is the difference between evaporation and transpiration? What role does each process play in the water cycle?
anygoal [31]
1. Evaporation is the escape of water molecules from their liquid phase to gas phase that go up into the atmosphere. Evaporation can occur anywhere where open liquid water is exposed to sunlight or any other source of energy. Transpiration, on the other hand, is the loss of water (by evaporation) from plants through the stomata. Evaporation and transpiration move water from the biosphere to the atmosphere.

2. Condensation is the return of water molecules from gaseous phase (vapor) back to liquid form. Precipitation, on the other hand, is the coming down of condensed water from the atmosphere to the earth (biosphere), which is a significant part of the water cycle.

3. Exchange pool is the pool from (or approximate amount) which water or other elements are shared (back and forth) between different spheres (such as biosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere) in a cycle. A reservoir on the other hand is analogous to a ‘container’ that holds large masses of water or other elements such as a lake and the atmosphere.

4. The answer is No. because, today’s waters, due to increased pollution from industrialization that spews a lot of pullutans into the atmphere, ae contamiated. The water that precipitates is tainted by gases such as sulphuric dioxide tha makes it acidic. The water also gets polluted by other pollutants in the atmpshre and biosphere and hence become a health risk to animals and humans that drink it.

Which structure is perforated with pores to allow material to move in and out of the nucleus?.
erastovalidia [21]

The nuclear envelope is perforated with pores to allow it to move in and out of the nucleus.

Every cell in the body has a nucleus, except for mature erythrocytes (red blood cells). While some cells contain more than one nucleus such as skeletal muscle and some other cells contain several nuclei.

The nuclear envelope surrounds the nucleus. i. e. largest organelle of the cell. It has a similar structure to that of

the plasma membrane. But the nuclear envelope contains tiny pores that allow a few substances to pass between it and outside the cytoplasm, i.e. the cell contents excluding the nucleus.

Therefore, the nuclear envelope is perforated with pores to allow it to move in and out of the nucleus.

To know more about the nucleus, refer to the below link:
