Answer:

A. stratified squamous epithelium; absorption

Explanation:

Stratified squamous epithelium are composed of multiple layers of cells which rest on a basement membrane. Superficial layers are made of squamous cells and underlying layers can also be made of cuboidal or columnar cells.

Stratified squamous epithelium  is generally present in area where there is frequent physical or chemical abrasion. It protects the underlying structures from the stress. Hence, it is found wherever the body comes in contact with the outer environment like skin, digestive system and respiratory system. It also prevents water loss and desiccation.

You are served dessert at a restaurant. You want to know what % of the calories in the dessert are from fat. The menu states tha
jasenka [17]

Answer:

39.82 %

Explanation:

Proteins and carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram. On the other hand, fats provide 9 calories.

We can first calculate the calories of protein + carbohydrates:

       (30g + 4g) x 4 = 136 calories

And we must calculate the calories provided by fat:

        10g x 9 = 90 calories

Now to get the percentage we must see how many calories the dessert has in total:

          136 + 90 = 226 cal

This represents 100% of calories. And now we need to find out how much 90 calories are from the total.

           226 cal -----> 100%

             90 cal ------> X

       (90 x 100) / 226 = 39.82 %

Tectonic plates are pieces of the ________ that float on the more fluid ________ below. A. mantle; crust B. asthenosphere; litho
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The answer is E.) Lithosphere, Asthenosphere.

Explanation:

Tectonic plates belong to the layer called Lithosphere. The tectonic plates float on the Asthenosphere which is below the Lithosphere and more fluid than the crust.

From the Earth's surface to the its center we can say that the inside of the Earth is divided into four layers which, starting from the top , are:

i) the crust

ii) the mantle, (Lithosphere, Asthenosphere , Mesosphere)

iii) the outer core

iv) the inner core.

The tectonic plates are part of the Lithosphere and are constantly moving even though the crust is fairly solid. This is because the inner layers

( Asthenosphere , Mesosphere) are much are fluid and are constantly moving which tends to move the tectonic plates. When the tectonic plates collide they do so with tremendous force which leads to earthquakes and sometimes tsunamis as well resulting in a loss of life and property.
