1. rapid cooling of basaltic lava
2. divergent plate boundaries on them mid ocean ridge system
Answer:Biological structures are able to adapt their growth to external mechanical stimuli and impacts. For example, when plants are under external loads, such as wind force and self-weight, the overloaded zones are reinforced by local growth acceleration and the unloaded zones stop growing or even shrink. Such phenomena are recorded in the annual rings of trees. Through his observation of the stems of spruce, K. Metzger, a German forester and author, realized that the final goal of the adaptive growth exhibited by biological structures over time is to achieve uniform stress distribution within them. He published his discovery in 1893.12 A team of scientists at Karlsruhe Research Centre adopted Metzger's observations and developed them to one single design rule: the axiom of uniform stress. The methods derived from this rule are simple and brutally successful like nature itself. An excellent account of the uniform-stress axiom and the optimization methods derived from it is given by Claus Mattheck in his book ‘Design in Nature’.13 The present study utilizes one of these methods, stress-induced material transformation (SMT), to optimize the cavity shape of dental restorations.
Explanation:
a is the answer pls mark brainliest
Answer:
The correct answer would be - observational approach.
Explanation:
Observation approach is the research technique that involves the observation of the subject or participates behavior in their natural habitat or state. This will be one of best approach to study.
Similarly when characterizing new findings various aspect of experimental, Observational details or modelling approaches will help in identification , classification and nomenclature. However, in comparison to experimental and modeling approach is more appropriate method for the rare endangered species.
Thus, the correct answer would be - observational approach.
