Earth's core acts as a source of heat in the mantle and results in mantle convection.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The earth is divided into three layers namely the outer crust, the middle mantle and the inner core. The inner core layer of the earth has very high temperature due to which it is very hot and it acts as source of heat for the middle layer mantle.

Mantle convection is the moderate crawling movement of Earth's strong silicate mantle brought about by convection flows conveying heat from the earth’s core to the earth’s crust. Thus the Earth's core acts as the heat source for mantle.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Photoperiodism

Explanation:

The process explained in the question is called "Photoperiodism" which refers to the plants' reaction to the length of the dark and light period in a day.

When the dark period is interrupted with a certain period of artificial lighting, the plant thinks that the day had a longer period where it's "light" than it is "dark" so it gets tricked into flowering. Same concept can be applied in reverse for the plants who flower during longer periods of dark.

I hope this answer helps.
