Layer of Earth made up of the crust and upper mantle: 1. lithosphere

long, underwater mountain ranges: 6. mid-ocean ridge

idea that the world's land masses are slowly moving over time: 9. continental drift

magnetic qualities "frozen" into rocks when they are formed showing the direction of the magnetic field at that time: 8. paleomagnetism

describes how Earth's plates move and what happens when they interact with each other: 10. plate tectonics

circulating flow of a gas or liquid due to density differences: 11. convection

force that pulls objects towards the Earth: 12. gravity

boundary where two tectonic plates are moving away from each other: 4. divergent boundary

boundary where two tectonic plates are moving towards each other or colliding: 3. convergent boundary

upper part of the mantle that is........ 2. asthenosphere

boundary where two tectonic plates move in opposite directions alongside each other: 5. transform boundary

place where one plate gets pushed under another plate: 14. subduction zone

deepest part of the ocean; steep-sided canyon: 7. ocean trench

super-continent made of all the continents that existed millions of years ago: 15. pangea

section of the lithosphere that slowly moves over the asthenosphere, carrying pieces of continental and oceanic crust: 13. tectonic plate

*numbers 10 and 13 are the same thing*

Select the correct scientist for each of the following advances in creating the modern periodic table.

sergey [27]

Answer:

Lavoisier; Newlands; Moseley

Explanation:

In 1789, Antoine Lavoisier grouped the elements into gases, nonmetals, metals, and earths.

In 1865, John Newlands developed the Law of Octaves. He stated that "any given element will exhibit analogous behaviour to the eighth element following it in the table."

In 1914, Henry Moseley found a correlation between the X-ray wavelength of an element and its atomic number. He was then able to restructure the periodic table according to atomic numbers.

What is an example of a microorganism acting in a harmful way? A) Bacteria aiding digestion. B) Bacteria causing strep throat. C

vaieri [72.5K]

Not very often, but sometimes, the language gives away the question. This is one such instance.

Look at A. Is digestion a bad thing? It shouldn't be. Otherwise you run marathons with gobs of food not being broken down and providing energy.
Not A.

Not C. Do you like yogurt? If you don't do you know someone who does? Is yogurt for you/them a bad thing. Bacteria here are good. Again, not C.

Not D. Waste is bad. It's a problem. Getting rid of it is good. Again not D.

There's only one left.
B <<<< answer. Who would like to get strep throat. It's a fate for your worst enemy.

B <<<< answer.

A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is soluble at a given temperature is said to be —

solniwko [45]

Answer: Saturated

A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that is soluble at a given temperature is said to be saturated.

Explanation:

A Saturated solution is one that contains as much (i.e maximum) solute as it can dissolve at that temperature in the presence of undissolved solute particles.

For instance: if a given volume of water can only dissolve a certain amount of salt in it at room temperature, then, more salt added will not dissolve.

Thus, making the solution saturated.
