Answer:

Glomar Challenger studies about the "age of rocks in various places in the ocean" in 1968

Explanation:

Glomar Challenger was a "deep sea research vessel" for marine geology and oceanography studies.

The vessel set out in 1968 on a "Deep Sea Drilling Program" in the Atlantic Ocean.

Samples were collected from various drilling locations and the study and analysis of these samples enabled the study of plate tectonics.

These samples also provided more information related to the rocks in oceans.

The vessel drilled cores containing rock salt, gypsum, anhydrite and several other evaporating minerals.

What will happen if a plants stomata is blocked

harkovskaia [24]

Does this help?

The glucose (sugar or plants food) is then converted back into carbon dioxide which is vital during photosynthesis. This therefore means that when stomata is blocked photosynthesis will stop because the CO₂ level will decline within the leaf, stopping the reactions that are light-independent.

~Hope this helps~
