Answer: d) Clinical examination
Explanation:
A clinical examination is a physical examination of the body which is usually done without any surgery. It notices the external characteristics and internal characteristics of body specially by using the diagnostic tests such as x-rays, MRI and others. This is done to determine the cause of disease and disorder.
The given assessment is the part of the clinical examination because external features such as skin, eyes and tongue can be examined in a clinical study to identify the disease or disorder and it's cause.
Appalachian: A. Two continents colliding.
The Appalachian mountain range is an ancient example of a collision between two continental plates. Both plates have low density and little subduction occurs between them.
North American Cordillera: B. Terrane accretion
These form when two continents that collided bonded so tight that it forms a permanent land mass. If the continents would pull away from each other, the terrane stays intact.
Aleutian plate: D. Oceanic convergence
This is a type of convergence where one plate subducts beneath another plate. Between the two, the older plate is usually the one that subducts because it is usually more dense.
Andes mountain range: C. An oceanic plate and continental plate colliding.
In the collision between an oceanic and continental plate, the thinner and more dense oceanic plate subducts under the continental plate. The Andes mountain range was formed by the subduction of the Nazca Plate beneath the South american Plate.
Incomplete dominance refers to a genetic situation in which one allele does not completely dominate another allele, and therefore results in a new phenotype.
The photoreceptors would be your eyes, chemoreceptors skin, olfactory for nose and mechanoreceptors for obviously tongue hope this helps.
