Earth has a great variety of surface features that are caused by weathering and erosion. Which of the following describes a chan
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Weathering describes the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of the Earth. Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering.

 

Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and mineral away. No rock on Earth is hard enough to resist the forces of weathering and erosion. Together, these processes carved landmarks such as the Grand Canyon, in the U.S. state of Arizona. This massive canyon is 446 kilometers (277 miles) long, as much as 29 kilometers (18 miles) wide, and 1,600 meters (1 mile) deep.

 

Weathering and erosion constantly change the rocky landscape of Earth.

Mitochondria and plastids are the most studied example in support of this theory. This theory explains that the aforementioned organelles are formed as they are taken inside in one another by the prokaryotic cell. Some of the evidences in support of this theory are mentioned below:

  • Phylogenetic similarity between the mitochondria and chloroplast to the proteobacteria and cynobacteria respectively.  
  • Ability of these organelles to divide only through binary fission as the bacterial population.
  • The associated ribosomes are similar to the bacterial ribosomes.  
  • Presence of porins in these organelles similar the bacterial membrane.

gulaghasi [49]
Answer - C
Snakes periodically shed their skin in order to regrow new skin. Birds migrating to the south and bears hibernating are also a result of normal periodic transitions. However, extinction of a type of shrimp is most likely a result of a drastic change in the environment.
