At divergent boundaries, plates separate, forming a narrow rift valley. Here, geysers spurt super-heated water, and magma, or molten rock, rises from the mantle and solidifies into basalt, forming new crust. Thus, at divergent boundaries, oceanic crust is created.
Answer:
B. decay of dead marine organisms
Explanation:
When the temperature is low, carbon dioxide is captured by the oceans, and when the temperature is high, it is released by the oceans into the atmosphere. At sea, carbon dioxide feeds phytoplankton.
Most of the carbon dioxide consumed by plant plankton (phytoplankton) returns to the atmosphere when this phytoplankton dies or is consumed, but a portion is deposited in the ocean floor sediments when these small particles sink. This process is called a "biological bomb" because carbon dioxide is transported from the atmosphere to the ocean floor.
Answer:

Answer:
The whole molecule is polar because Sulfur has lone pairs but Carbon doesn't. Lone pairs count more toward polarity, shifting dipole toward S.
Explanation:
Even though carbon and sulfur have identical values of electronegativities, the molecule,
is polar because of the presence of the lone pairs on the sulfur atom.
The C-S bond is not polar because the both the atoms have electronegatiivty. <u>But S has lone pairs which can attract the bond pairs of the bond between the S and H and thus acquires slightly negative charge and H acquires slightly positive charge.</u>
