4 0

Answer:

The heritable characters are the traits that are determined by the heredity material (genetic material) of the organism.

The heritable trait ensures the reproductive success of the species but the trait is also influenced by the environment.

In the given question, the height of the oak trees is determined by the genetic material but the variation on height is the result of the environmental characteristics. The height of the tree could have varied due to the exposure to the sunlight (more sunlight more height) or the available nutrients.

In subduction zones, dense pieces of oceanic crust are pulled downward toward the mantle. Which of the following forces drives t

Alex

Force of gravity drives to the process of subduction zones where dense pieces of oceanic crust are pulled downward toward the mantle.
We can term subduction as the process by which oceanic crust sinks into the mantle when it collides with continental crust. Subduction destroys oceanic crust by forcing it to the mantle where it melts.
Oceanic crust is said to be subducted because they contain more mafic minerals and again it has convergent boundaries. When there is a divergent between continental crust one oceanic crust sinks into the mantle.
