The correct answer is:

d. all of the above

Explanation:

In plate tectonics, a convergent boundary, also recognized as a destructive plate boundary, is a section of active deformation where two or more tectonic plates or parts of the lithosphere are near the edge of their life cycle. If two tectonic plates strike, they create a convergent plate boundary.

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

In a convergent plate motion, the two plates move towards each other. Due to this, a subduction zone is created that is often marked by a deep-sea trench. It also results in the deep-focus earthquakes. Here, the subducting plate mixes with the melt at great depth and the magma eventually rises up forming island arcs and volcanic arcs.

In an oceanic-oceanic convergent boundary, island arcs are formed and in the continental-oceanic convergent boundary, volcanic arcs are formed.

Lastly, in the continental-continental convergent boundary, huge mountain belts like Himalaya are formed.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Which movement of particles would be most affected by a disorder that causes damage to carrier proteins ?
Makovka662 [10]

Active transport;

The movement of particles would be most affected by a disorder that causes damage to carrier proteins is the active transport.

Explanation;

Active transport involves the movement of materials against the concentration gradient.

This type of transport requires energy in form of ATP to aid the movement of particles from a lower concentration to a higher concentration.

Active transport requires carrier proteins such as the sodium-Potassium pump, to move materials in and out of the cell.
