Eukaryota Is The Correct Answer
California is home to the largest, tallest, and oldest trees on earth, all of which are gymnosperms.
Gymnosperms are plants that have seeds and are usually coniferous trees. Given that those largest, tallest, and oldest trees are sequoias, this seems to be the correct answer.
Nonvascular plants are quite small. Seedless vascular plants is also incorrect, because sequoias have seeds. Angiosperms are flowers.
A) 5
Half-life is the time it will take for a quantity to reduce to half its initial value. In this case, uranium will undergo radioactive decay, and after 700 mil years, 5 of the 10 uranium atoms will have decayed.
Answer:
D. hotter rock rises and cooler rock sinks.
Explanation:
We know that as we move <u>towards Earth's center</u>, the <u>temperature rises</u>. This rise in temperature causes rocks to melt (magma). The high temperature and melting of rocks <u>decrease the density of material </u>which makes it <u>move upward</u>. By <u>moving upward</u>, the molten rock <u>starts turning solid</u> and becomes <u>denser again</u>. Here, it <u>sinks back due to gravity</u>. This upward and downward movement of rocks due to density and temperature makes a convection cell.
PS: The formation of convection cells in Earth's interior is also the reason for plate tectonics.
