Answer:
Explanation:
After doing some g0ogle searches, I believe C is incorrect. Stated from g0ogle, "Commercial jet aircraft fly in the lower stratosphere to avoid the turbulence which is common in the troposphere below. " It seems to me that jets avoid the troposphere, which is below. <3
Plants that live in the cold desert include the sego lily, different types of grasses, bitterbrush, rabbit brush, and sage brush.
Answer:
The number of genes partially explains how an organism has evolved and how it gained complexity.
Explanation:
The number of genes of a bacteria versus an eucaryotic organism is quite distinct and so is their complexity. A prokaryotic organism like a bacteria has a set of genes necessary to exert their basic functions and the number of genes compared to a eucaryotic cell is 3-30 times smaller, which defines a direct correlation of number of genes and complexity. However if we consider only eucaryote organisms and their complexity there is no such direct correlation between number of genes and their complexity when, for example, we compare the number of genes of humans (approximately 18000) and the number of genes of the <em>Trichomonas vaginalis, </em>an anaerobic, flagellated protozoan parasite and the causative agent of trichomoniasis. The number of genes of <em>T. vaginalis</em> is far bigger than the human cell, however the human complexity is far more advanced than the parasite organism.
Answer:
B. At the edge of the plates
Explanation:
<u>Gravity </u>is the principal <u>driving force </u>of <u>plate tectonics </u>(second one is convection<u>)</u>. It causes different density plates to move on the Earth's surface. However, when a <u>denser plate coincides the less denser plate, the high density plate subducts</u> below the <u>lesser density plate</u>. The process, therefore, is called <u>subduction</u>. During this collision of plates, <u>shearing resistance increases</u> and all <u>pressures come at the edge of the plate</u>. The process continues and the lithosphere drags the rest of the plate. The portion of plate below the less denser plate then reaches the mantle. Here, the edge of plate is destroyed due to high temperature of mantle as well as pressure.
Answer:
Small scale convergence
Explanation:
This term in meteorology occurs in a convergence zone; a region in the atmosphere where two air flows meet and interact, usually resulting in major weather conditions. A Small-scale convergence will produce situations ranging from isolated cumulus clouds to large areas of thunderstorms.
