What is the effect on a plate when a slab sinks

Biology
1 answer:
mestny [16]3 years ago
3 0
The slab sinks faster and this pulls on the rest of the plate, continuing plate tectonics. Mantle convection creates the instability that allows plate tectonics to get going and helps a little, but it's not thought to be the main driving force

GuDViN [60]

Hello!


Your answer would be erosion.


Erosion means to "move" sediments through wind, water, etc.

Weathering means to break down something.

Decomposition means to decay.

Identify the compound that plants make to store as energy
enyata [817]

Plants store starch which is a complex carbohydrate. This can be broken down into a simple one known as glucose. They then use glucose for energy.

How does DNA homology measure genetic relatedness ?
lesya [120]

Answer:

by the nitrocellulose membrane filter method. (more info below)

Explanation:

Genetic relationship between mycoplasma as determined by nucleic acid homology.  DNA from each of the mycoplasma isolates tested was reacted separately by complementary RNA synthesized with homologous or heterologous DNA as a primer. The amount of DNA-RNA hybrids formed was tested using the method of the nitrocellulose membrane filter.

hope this helped!

In which case would facilitated diffusion be needed?
melomori [17]

Answer:

The voltage-gated potassium channels associated with an action potential provide an example of what type of membrane transport?

A. Simple diffusion.

B.<u> Facilitated diffusion. </u>

C. Coupled transport.

D. Active transport.

You are studying the entry of a small molecule into red blood cells. You determine the rate of movement across the membrane under a variety of conditions and make the following observations:

i. The molecules can move across the membrane in either direction.

ii. The molecules always move down their concentration gradient.

iii. No energy source is required for the molecules to move across the membrane.

iv. As the difference in concentration across the membrane increases, the rate of transport reaches a maximum.

The mechanism used to get this molecule across the membrane is most likely:

A. simple diffusion.

<u>B. facilitated diffusion. </u>

C. active transport.

D. There is not enough information to determine a mechanism.

Carrier proteins - exist in two conformations, altered by high affinity binding of the transported molecule. Moves material in either direction, down concentration gradient (facilitated diffusion). EXAMPLE: GluT1 erythrocyte glucose transporter.

Channel proteins - primarily for ion transport. Form an aqueous pore through the lipid bilayer. May be gated. Moves material in either direction, down concentration gradient (facilitated diffusion). EXAMPLES: Voltage-gated sodium channel, erytrhocyte bicarbonate exchange protein.

This might be helpful... because I don't know anything about facilitated diffusion.
