<span>Chromosomes, especially homologous chromosomes exchange genetic materials through translocation of their parts in a process called crossing over. If the exchange between the chromosomes is balanced and  preserves the proper complement of genetic material,  then the chances of the probability of mutation are low. However, if this translocation is uneven and disrupts the regulation of genes (such as activate an oncogene or inhibit a tumor suppressor gene probably due to multiple fusions at a single locus) then the chances of cancer are high. </span>

The thickest part of the crust occurs in _____.
lana [24]

Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

The continental crust is usually thick because it has an average thickness of about 35-40 km. In the high mountain ranges, it is the thickest, forming about 80 km on an average. These are formed when two continental plates form a sandwich pattern by sharing a convergent type of plate boundary.

For example, the thickest part of the crust is the Mt. Everest which lies in the great Himalayan range, which has started to form about 50 million years back. It is geologically the most recent mountain range.

The older mountains are continuously eroded in the geological past, as a result of which the height of the mountains is affected.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

A base, in contrast, raises pH by providing hydroxide (OH −start superscript, minus, end superscript) or another ion or molecule that scoops up hydrogen ions and removes them from solution.
