Answer:

True

Explanation:

Convection current in the earth’s mantle are the causative factor of “movement of tectonic plates”. Convection currents basically affect a liquid, gas or a molten material. Since the mantle of earth consists of molten rock, it is heated up by the convection currents and thus allowed to flow. Flowing of magma with in the earth’s mantle causes the movement of tectonic plates .

Therefore , the statement "Convection currents within the Earth cause plate tectonics due to the movement of the mantle" is true.

il63 [147K]

Answer:

There are no options to this question, however, the question can be answered. The answer is:

FF and FF/Ff

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for possession or not of freckles in humans. The allele for freckles (F) is dominant over the allele for no freckles (f). This means that genotypes FF and Ff (heterozygous) will possess freckles while only genotype ff will not.

According to this question, a couple has several children in which all of the children have freckles i.e. have either genotype FF or Ff. This is as a result of the fact that the parent's genotypes were either FF or Ff. That is, one parent is FF while the other is either FF or Ff. This genotypes will only produce children with freckles.
