What types of features would be visible if the oceans were drained?

1 answer:

6 0

Draining the oceans would show features such as mid-ocean ridges. These features would look like an extensive mountain range running down the spine of the ocean floor. This region marks the area where two oceanic tectonic plates are being pushed apart. Closer to land or the continents would be a gentle shelf that gradually deepens as one moves away from the coastline. This relatively gentle plain would then make a steep drop off down to an extensive plain stretching towards ocean ridges. The ocean floor also supports lone mountain structures, canyons and chasms.

D. herbivores- 2

E. one another differentiation -5

F. homeostasis- 1

G. metabolism- 3

Explanation:

A. Pathogen- a pathogen is a living organism which can feed on other organism and can utilise their cellular components for their own survival. This affects the host cell and they get infected and the pathogen thus causes disease.

B. Aerobic- The oxygen appeared on Earth later compared to the time life originated on earth. Therefore some organism living today can use oxygen for survival and some not. The organism which utilises oxygen for their survival is known as aerobic microorganisms.

C. Hypothesis- The hypothesis is a predicted statement formulated based on the study related to the natural event which can explain the natural event.

D. Herbivores- The organism which cannot make food for themselves on their own but rely on another organism, especially the plants, are known as the herbivores.

E. Differentiation- Differentiation is the process which forms a variety of cells from a single cell and can perform different functions.

F. Homeostasis- is the mechanism which can maintain the internal conditions of the organisms.
