The rocks near the mid-ocean ridge were younger then rock near trenches. 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.

Answer: The evidences of seas floor spreading are as follows-

  1. The sea floor spreading is taking place because of the constant plate tectonic movement.
  2. The plates moves in opposite direction along the mid oceanic ridge, where new materials are added forming a new young crust.
  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.

Answer:

C. NAD⁺  

Step-by-step explanation:

NADH is oxidized to NAD⁺ in Complex I of the Electron Transport Chain.

NADH ⟶ NAD⁺ + H⁺ + 2e⁻

The electrons continue through the Electron Transport Chain, and the NAD⁺ is used in three places during the Krebs Cycle.

(a) Isocitrate to oxalosuccinate

Isocitrate + NAD⁺ ⟶ oxalosuccinate + NADH + H⁺

(b) α-Ketoglutarate to succinyl-CoA

α-ketoglutarate + NAD+ + CoA → succinyl CoA + CO₂ + NADH

(c) Malate to oxaloacetate

Malate + NAD⁺  ⟶ oxaloacetate + NADH + H⁺

The NADH produced by these three reactions can then be used by Complex I in the Electron Transport Chain.

Which of the following describes a way to recover items and use them for energy?
dybincka [34]

One of the ways which describes a way to recover items and use them for energy is the using recovered biomass when appropriate.

<h3>What is biomass energy?</h3>

Biomass energy can simply be defined as that energy which is generated or synthesized by living things or once living things

So therefore, one of the ways which describes a way to recover items and use them for energy is the using recovered biomass when appropriate.

The principal of Dominance states that
jeka94

Principle of Dominance was given by Sir Gregor Johann Mendel.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Principle of Dominance was given by Sir Gregor Johann Mendel as a conclusion of the monohybrid cross between the different characteristic pea plants. It says that in an organism which is heterozygous for a particular character, only the dominant trait is able to express as a phenotype, not the recessive one. In other words, the recessive allele is completely masked by the presence of the dominant allele. This leads to same phenotype of a homozygous dominant organism and a heterozygous organism.

To test the organism about its heterozygosity, the organism is led through a test cross where the organism is crossed with a recessive organism. If the F1 offsprings are all dominant, then the organism is homozygous dominant, and if the F1 offsprings are of half dominant and half recessive phenotype, then the organism is heterozygous.

Explain how organisms changes within an environment affect their survival. Specifically discuss the effects of a gene mutation f
maw [93]
<span>Animals gradually adapt to changes within their environment over time. This gives them a better chance of surviving rather than going extinct because of the change. Say there is a gene mutation affecting color within a population of beetles in a rain-forest. All of the beetles used to be red, but now a few of them have experienced a gene mutation and are green. Because they live in a rain-forest, it is likely that the green beetles would blend in with their surroundings far better than the original red beetles, and those red beetles would be wiped out by predators because they are easier to spot. The green beetles would live on and flourish, and their population would increase. Soon there would be few or none red beetles, and many green beetles.</span>
