C. middle layer, density increases with depth as pressure increases

Explanation:

The mantle is the middle layer of the earth. It's density increases with depth as pressure increases.

  • Based on the compositional division of the earth, our blue planet is divided into crust, mantle and the core.
  • The crust is the lightest and the outermost layer of the earth.
  • The mantle is the middle layer. Its density lies between that of the core and crust.
  • The mantle is the largest layer and density increases with depth here.
  • The core is a metallic ball. It is the most dense part of the earth.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

Neither.

Explanation:

When an electron is released from rest, in an uniform electric field, it will accelerate moving in a direction opposite to the field (as the field has the direction that it would take a positive test charge, and the electron carries a negative charge).

It will move towards a point  with a higher potential, so its kinetic energy will increase, while its potential energy will decrease:

⇒ ΔK + ΔU = 0 ⇒ ΔK = -ΔU = - (-e*ΔV)

As ΔV>0, we conclude that the electric potential energy decreases while the kinetic energy increases in the same proportion, in order to energy be conserved, in absence of non-conservative forces.

Jlenok [28]

The independent variable is the different amount of repellent each person is given. This is because it does not depend on any variable. The dependent variable is what they are measuring, which would be the number of bites on each volunteer.
I hope this helps! :)

Which causes the thermocline?
Igoryamba
<span>Thermocline is a layer between warm water from the ocean’s surface and cool water from below the ocean. In here, the temperature decreases rapidly from the warmer layer to the colder layer.  A thermocline forms due to the heat of the sun heating the ocean’s surface. Because of the difference in density between warm and cooler ocean water, cooler ocean water sinks and warmer ocean water floats. This is caused due to the heat and mass transfer between particles of the ocean. The answer is letter C. The sun’s radiation does not extend below a certain depth; therefore, deeper ocean water is colder than surface water.</span>
