Matching bands of magnetic rocks were found on either side of the mid-ocean ridge; bands like tree ring - record changes in earths magnetic field over time. Earthquake data showed oceanic crust is sinking on to the mantle at trenches.

  3. The rocks that are found near the mid oceanic ridge are younger than the rocks that are found away from the mid oceanic ridge.
  4. The alternating magnetic strips studied on the particles, observed on both the sides of the mid oceanic ridge are identical.

bearhunter [10]

Answer;

B) Neurons, epithelial cells

Explanation;

-Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a rare neuromuscular disease with slowly progressive weakness in voluntary muscle movement. PLS belongs to a group of disorders known as motor neuron diseases. PLS affects the upper motor neurons (also called corticospinal neurons) in the arms, legs, and face.

-It occurs when nerve cells in the motor regions of the cerebral cortex (the thin layer of cells covering the brain which is responsible for most higher level mental functions) gradually degenerate, causing movements to be slow and effortful.  The disorder often affects the legs first, followed by the body, trunk, arms and hands, and, finally the bulbar muscles (muscles that control speech, swallowing, and chewing).
