Answer:

Option D, Continents cannot cut through the ocean floor.

Explanation:

It was believed earlier that oceans were the land bridges that used to connect  different geologic plates of planet earth earlier, had now sank down and thus there exists no connection between the tectonic plates. Therefore,  without any link or connection, continents cannot cut through the ocean floor.

Also as per the Land Bridge Theory , there has been continuous shifting of dry land due to which identical land species on different continents were found.

Hence, option D is correct

Plants take up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and fix the molecules into organic compounds. This is why forests are recognized as significant carbon sinks because they sequester carbon from the atmosphere. Therefore, deforestation is a big contributor to an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide. The other contributor to an increase of the greenhouse gas is rapid industrialization whereby industries emit carbon dioxide as a pollutant.

Crossing over occurs when
Svet_ta [14]
Correct answer:
"<span>B- homologous chromosomes join together to form tetrads during prophase I"

</span>It is during prophase I that homologous chromosomes join together (<span>synapsis)</span> and form tetrads - four chromatids are together in the new structure of two chromosomes - and this is the reason why crossing-over occurs in this phase. It is in this tetrad that both arms of both chromosomes may crossover and matching regions exchange places. This process results in homologous chromosomes recombination leading to genetic variability.
