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.

option (b) not because,

Within that centrosome there are two centrioles. And centrioles are physical objects made up of things called microtubules.

option (c) not because....,

Centromere repeats in humans are made up of alpha-satellite DNA, a ∼171 bp sequence or monomer that is iteratively repeated. Alpha-satellite monomers are arranged head-to-tail and organized into repeated arrays called higher order repeats (HORs) that range from 0.2 to 5 megabases (Mb) and are chromosome specific.

The lens within an eye focuses light onto the
zubka84 [21]
<span>Eyes are sensitive to light and when light falls on them, they transmit electrical signals to the brain. The lens in the eye focuses light falling on it, on to the retina. Depeding on the amount of light and distance of objects from the eyes, the lens changes shape to allow focus on objects at varying distances and this is called accommodation.</span>
