Answer:

Prevention of sister chromatids'  separation during anaphase.

Explanation:

During the anaphase, the chromosomes moves toward poles. This process is  It is accompanied by shortening of the kinetochore microtubules  and by the depolymerization of spindle microtubules at the two spindle poles.

So when docetaxel is introduced the anaphases' processes are stopped.

What ion is entering the axon terminal at A, and what effect does it have?
Katena32 [7]
The ion which is entering axon terminal A is called Ca²⁺.
The effect which it has is, it causes the release of neurotransmitter from the axon terminal.

Axon terminal is termed as distal termination of telodendria of an axon. Another name for the axon terminal is synaptic boutons. Axon is a long, slender projection which is of a nerve cell. 
Their work is to conduct electrical impulses which are referred to as action potential which is a way of neurons of the cell body. Neurons use electrochemical signals and also a neurotransmitter chemical which transmits impulses from one neuron to another.
Axon terminals are being separated from neighboring neurons by a gap known as a synapse. Both the axon terminal and neuron they come from a point which is called the presynaptic neuron.

Which statement best explains why Earth's lithosphere is broken into tectonic plates?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

( d ) The brittle lithosphere cracks under pressure from the moving asthenosphere.

Explanation:

~ The earth's crust refers to the outer layer of the planet earth . The surface of a planet is usually formed of less dense material than the deeper layers. Only 1/3 of the earth's crust is terrestrial , the rest is covered by oceans . The thickness of the earth's crust is between 10 to 30 miles.

The earth's crust, which is the upper part of the lithosphere , is divided into two layers. The top layer is continental , which is composed of granite . While under granite is a layer of hard rock called basalt .

On a semi-liquid planet , such as Earth , the earth's surface floats on top of the liquid inner layer. The crust seems to be often divided into pieces known as tectonic plates which due to the movement of molten magma beneath it, are able to move. This is a phenomenon of continental drift theory . In addition, collisions between two tectonic plates can produce volcanoes .

The Earth's crust is made up of rocks, minerals, soil and fossil fuels.
