Biology
2 answers:
Andrew [12]3 years ago

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

The interior of the earth is comprised of different layers. The crust is the outermost layer of the earth and is divided into the continental and the oceanic crust. The thickness of the oceanic crust is about 7-10 km whereas the thickness of the continental crust ranges from 35-40 km.

<u>The density of this crust is the minimum in comparison to the mantle and the core and is about 2.8 g/cm³.</u> <u>This density is quite less due to the decreasing temperature within the crust. As the depth increases, density increases. Therefore, the temperature also extensively increases</u>.

The temperature is the maximum in the inner core and the <u>minimum in the crust</u>.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

The temperature is lowest at the crust. As you get lower into the Earth's surface, the temperature gets hotter.

How many chromosomes does a child inherit from his or her parents
pochemuha

Ans.

In humans, there are total of 46 chromosomes in each cell that show 23 pairs of chromosome. During reproduction, meiosis occurs in germ cells that leads to formation of daughter cells or gametes that contain half of the chromosomes as present in parent cells. Thus, each gamete (either male or female) contains 23 chromosome.

During fertilization, fusion of male gamete or sperm(with 23 chromosomes) and female gamete or ovum(with 23 chromosomes) to form zygote that develops into multi-cellular offspring with 46 chromosomes.

Thus, 'a child inherit 46 chromosomes from his or her parent (23 chromosomes from each parent).'
