Answer:

crust and outer part of the mantle

Explanation:

The lithosphere is the outermost part of the earth. It is a rocky layer, which varies in thickness in the mountainous regions and in the deep sea depths, formed by the crust (terrestrial and oceanic) and the outer part of the upper mantle.

The lithosphere (name comes from the Greek, lithos = stone, rock and sphaira = sphere) relates to the other layers, the hydrosphere, the atmosphere and the biosphere, undergoing many changes as a result of these. It is composed of minerals and rocks, which can be of three types: igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic.

Earth's layers have different chemical compositions and temperatures, which favors the mantle being more liquid because there are very high temperatures, over 1000ºC. The crust is like a film, covering the surface of the planet, it is a very solid layer, while the mantle is more "plastic", that is, has a less rigid consistency.

Genetic diversity

Explanation:

Sexual reproductions, mutation, and crossing-over generates a wide range of genetic diversity within a population.

  • Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which gametes fuses to produce a fertile and viable offspring.
  • Mutation is the process of altering genetic sequences in population to production new breeds called mutants.
  • Crossing-over is the exchange of chromosomes between two homologous pairs.

All these processes ensures that a pool of diverse gene exists within a population in order give competitive and adaptability advantage to organisms.

¿para que sirven los plasmodesmos?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Los plasmodesmos forman una ruta importante para la comunicación entre las células vegetales. Regulan la comunicación de célula a célula, permitiendo así la diferenciación de órganos y tejidos vegetales.

Los plasmodesmos facilitan el movimiento de moléculas entre las células, desde pequeños productos fotosintéticos hasta grandes proteínas y ARNm. En el tejido vascular, los plasmodesmos son cruciales para el movimiento de nutrientes. También son cruciales durante el desarrollo porque, a diferencia de las células animales, las células vegetales no se mueven. Por tanto, la expresión correcta de genes tanto temporal como espacialmente es importante. Mientras que las células vegetales, como las células animales, son capaces de interactuar receptor-ligando para enviar señales a otras células, los plasmodesmos ofrecen contacto directo. Además, el tamaño de la manga difiere en diferentes tipos de células y tejidos vegetales. Por tanto, los plasmodesmos son un componente celular activo en el transporte intercelular, durante el desarrollo y en el tejido maduro.
