Answer:

The purpose of the structure of a spirillum is to obtain more flexibility, which will facilitate its movement.

Explanation:

Spirillum bacteria are a phylum, the Spirochaetes. And its name is probably because of the spiral shape its body structure has. Due to this body structure, these bacteria have greater flexibility and can move with greater ease and agility. The movement they perform is circulatory wave (usually around the body itself).

Which statement explains why earthquakes tend to be deeper near subduction zones?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Option C, At a subduction zone, oceanic crust is forced deep into the Earth.

Explanation:

At sub-duction zone, the dense oceanic plates coincides with the less dense continental plates and thus sink below the continental plates. Sometimes these oceanic plates being dense, sink to greater depth with in the earth’s mantle. The sub-duction zone causes  earth quakes of high intensity when oceanic crust penetrates to greater depths of earth crust as they tend to change the rheology of the earths’ mantle and also causes bending of plates

Hence, option C is correct
