Describe how surface currents would be affected if earth did not rotate

Biology
1 answer:
Tanya [424]3 years ago
7 0
<span>When the earth spins in a certain direction, the ocean currents move in the opposite direction, sort of like when a car moves forward you are pulled backwards. However, there would still be wind and the gravitational pull of the moon which causes currents. The rotation of the earth just sort of "accents" these. So as a result, you would have many more smaller ocean current cycles.

Which of the following is an accurate description of an adult stem cell?
ELEN [110]

Answer;

C. Multipotent

Explanation;

-Multipotent cells are those cells that can develop into more than one cell type, however, they are more limited than pluripotent cells. Adult stem cells and cord blood stem cells are considered multipotent.

Totipotent cells on the other hand, are those cells that can form all the cell types in a body, together with the extraembryonic, or placental cells. Embryonic cells are the only cells that are totipotent within the first couple of cell divisions after fertilization.

Pluripotent cells are those cells that give rise to all of the cell types that make up the body; embryonic stem cells are considered pluripotent.
