How is diffusion related to smelling the odor of a skunk that is far away

Biology
1 answer:
lions [1.4K]3 years ago
5 0
Diffusion is the idea that when a solute enters an area with a lower concentration than the solute, it will mix into the area. So the skunk odor has a higher solute concentration then the atmosphere it's released into, so when it is released it will diffuse across a wider area in order to try and level out the level of concentration. This means it can be smelt from further away. <span />

How are ocean ridges and trenches related? Describe their relationship in
True [87]

Terms that are asked to be used in the response are bolded;

     Ocean ridges and trenches are related in a few ways. One of the ways is being created from the movement of tectonic plates on the mantle when they diverge and converge. When tectonic plates diverge they "pull apart" and create trenches. When they converge they "push together" and create ridges, subduction happens here. The tectonic plates move on the mantle of magna from convection currents creating these different boundaries.

Have a nice day!
