If you were traveling across the Atlantic Ocean taking rock samples from the sea

The rocks would be younger the closer you get to the ridge

The Mid-Atlantic ridge is a divergent tectonic boundary in the middle of Atlantic Ocean spanning north to south.

Explanation:

At a divergent boundary, a phenomenon called seafloor spreading occurs as new crust is formed along the ridge. New crust seems to 'spread' from the ridge. Therefore, the farther away from the ridge you get, the older the crust gets. This occurs because magma from the mantle rises to replace the void created by the tectonic plates moving away. The magma rises and cools creating a mountainous ridge long the boundary. Seafloor spreading, however, happens really slowly and the changes are only perceptible over 1000s and millions of years.

What statement best summarizes the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration? (2 points)
Dominik [7]
1) Photosynthesis uses sunlight energy to produce sugar. Sugar goes from one cell to another until it reaches the cells which don’t have access to sunlight (or they don’t get enough sunlight), so they can’t make any photosyntesis or they make very little photosyntesis. That’s how the leaves of a plant feed the roots of the same plant. When that cell receives the sugar, it makes cell respiration to convert it back to water and CO2 and release energy. When an animal eats a plant, animal cells also make this respiration process with the sugar.

The chemical equation is basically the opposite:

Photosyntesis: water + CO2 -> O2 + sugar

Respiration: sugar + O2 -> CO2 + water

 

2) The DNA duplication is semiconservative, which means each new double chain contains 1 original molecule and 1 newly synthesized molecule.

When DNA is duplicated, each one of the molecules (chains) acts as a template for one of the chains that are being synthesized. Wherever there is an A in the old molecule, the new molecule will have a T. G goes with C, C goes with G and T goes with A. The way this happens is related to the number of hydrogen bonds (C and G have 3, whereas A and T have 2) and the molecular size (A and G have 2 cycles, whereas T and C have 1 cycle – so it is always a big one with a small one, total = 3 cycles). You can compare it with a chocolate mold: if you want a chocolate to be heart-shaped, you have to get a mold which has a heart-shaped hole and put the warm chocolate inside. So the mold and the chocolate have the opposite shape – complementary shape. But in this case, once the duplication process ends, mold and new DNA stay together as a brand new couple, and the mold never goes back with the other mold.

Changing geographic distribution of disease vectors meaning
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Vector changes with geography.

Explanation:

Vectors of disease are changing with the changing in the geographic location because different vectors survives in different environment so due to change in geography, vectors of a disease also change. Vectors refers to organisms that is responsible for carrying infectious bacteria or viruses that causes certain diseases in animals, plants and humans. Different vectors are present in different geography due to different climatic condition that forbit one vector to survive in all environments.
