What would life be like without plate tectonics

Biology

emmasim [6.3K]3 years ago

 It really is impossible to predict such a matter. I mean, think about it, its nearly impossible to think about how earth would be impacted if the heat from the interior of the planet that powers plate tectonics were to suddenly cease to exsist, or if that heat never exsisted in the first place, because that is how planets are formed.
 One thing is certain however, life wouldn't be the same without plate tectonics; in one case, the constont transgression/regression, sue in large part of tectonic forces acts as a evolutionary pump forcing life to evolve. EXAMPLE:  the evolution of plants from marine to terrestrial settings. Without plate tectonics, life would certainly be dramatically different.

Identify what types of of questions that can be answered by science
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

There are many questions that can be answered by science but I will provide some examples below.

Explanation:

Science involves many areas of study, <u>from biology and chemistry to physics and neuroscience</u>. Generating questions and providing answers are the most important steps in science as this process has allowed thousands of scientists to develop new drugs to treat previously-mortal diseases, to protect endangered species, to prevent population declines, to understand the behavior of fauna, among many other remarkable outcomes and discoveries.

In this answer, I will focus on some questions belonging to the life sciences areas that can be answered by science:

kotykmax [81]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct statement is option A which is, "A gene is a segment on the DNA. DNA is wrapped in proteins to form a chromosome".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • A gene is the part of DNA in the nucleus which encodes for the specific trait in the body. DNA is the nucleotide sequence which is the blue print for the whole organism. It contains genes for all the structures and functions in the body.
  • So it is very long sequence containing the million of genes. So in nucleus it is present in compress form. It is wrapped on the histones proteins and condense and supersondense into a specific structure which is known as chromosome.
