Biology
2 answers:
Andrew [12]3 years ago
8 0

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.

Lon channels are not continuously open and are highly selective. <br> (a) True <br> (b) False
Svetach [21]

Answer: True

Explanation: Ion channels are very specific and are voltage gated channels. They are highly specific and selective for particular ions only.

Example: Some of the channels allow the flow of potassium ions but do not allow sodium ions to cross the membrane to maintain the concentration.

Some of the positive ion channels allow only the movement of positive ions and no negative ions. These channels are not always open and opens only when there is a concentration gradient.
