When mantle rocks near the radioactive core are heated, they become less dense than the cooler, upper mantle rocks. These warmer

rocks rise, while the cooler rocks sink. This movement of warmer and cooler mantle rocks creates pockets of circulation within the mantle called _________, which are thought to be the force behind the movement of tectonic plates over the asthenosphere.
A) magma flows
B) density cells
C) convection cells (currents)
D) conduction points

C) convection cells (currents)

Explanation:

The movement of warmer cooler mantle rocks creating a circulation within the mantle is called a convection cell. These are the forces that drives the plate over asthenosphere.

  • Convection is form of heat transfer predominant in liquids and gases.
  • The mantle is molten and heated from heat within the core and the decay of radioactive bodies.
  • Hot bodies are light and tend to be more buoyant. This causes warm mantle to rise to the surface.
  • The cold part are denser and heavier, they sink in the mix.
  • This creates pockets of circulation pattern within the mantle called convection cells.

What part of the cell is a cop
Tanya [424]

Answer: This is from a wiki i found. Approximately one third of a cell’s proteins are destined to function outside the cell’s boundaries or while embedded within cellular membranes. Ensuring these proteins reach their diverse final destinations with temporal and spatial accuracy is essential for cellular physiology. In eukaryotes, a set of interconnected organelles form the secretory pathway, which encompasses the terrain that these proteins must navigate on their journey from their site of synthesis on the ribosome to their final destinations. Traffic of proteins within the secretory pathway is directed by cargo-bearing vesicles that transport proteins from one compartment to another. Key steps in vesicle-mediated trafficking include recruitment of specific cargo proteins, which must collect locally where a vesicle forms, and release of an appropriate cargo-containing vessel from the donor organelle (Figure 1). The newly formed vesicle can passively diffuse across the cytoplasm, or can catch a ride on the cytoskeleton to travel directionally. Once the vesicle arrives at its precise destination, the membrane of the carrier merges with the destination membrane to deliver its cargo. Have a nice day.

How could you tell whether a liquid is <br> honey or vinegar?
MissTica
Based on the liquids viscosity (which is a measure of how quickly/slowly a fluid can flow).

Higher viscosity represents a "thicker" liquid & slower flow (honey)
Lower viscosity represents a "thinner" liquid & quicker flow (vinegar)
