A

There are two (2) apparent features that show that the boundary at label D is a convergent boundary. These features are the trench and the subducting plate

Explanation:

In a convergent boundary, two plates moving in opposing direction collide. The denser plate, usually the oceanic plate, gets subducted underneath the less dense plate usually the continental plate. Due to the enormous stress of the subduction, the plates usually warp downwards at the boundary hence the formation of a oceanic trench.  

Another common feature of convergent boundaries is a volcanic arc which is a chain of volcanic mountains. These are formed because of the fissures that develop along the boundary due to the stress between the two plates. The subducted plate, as it dives into the mantle, melts and the magma rises through the fissures. At the surface the magma erupt into a volcanic mountain. Due to the numerous fissures along the boundary, several mountains (a mountain chain) will develop.

Which statements describe a bacteriophage? Select all that apply.
Delicious77 [7]

Options:

a.    It is a type of virus that infects bacteria.

b. It is a type of bacteria that infects viruses.

c. It is a virus consisting of a protein coat and a DNA core.

d. It is a bacterial strain consisting of protein and a DNA core.

Answer:

<u>Option-(A, C):</u> It is a type of virus that infects bacteria, and it is a virus consisting of a protein coat and a DNA core.                                                                                                                          

Explanation:

  • The bacteriophage is a form of unicellular cell that comprises of a very specific form of structure, having the genetic materials intact inside the protein coat and the rest of the body is termed to be more of a crystalline in nature. As, the phage is categorized for having the main host as the bacterial cell, and it replicates itself by using the two main pathways which are the following:
  1. Lytic cycle,
  2. Lysogenic cycle.

What is the discriminat of the quadratic equation 3-4x=-6x^2
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

-56

Explanation:

ax^2 + bx + c = 0 is the discriminant of the quadratic equation

3 - 4x= -6x^2

to

-6x^2 + 4x -3 = 0

We know that:

a = -6

b = 4

c = -3

Substitute in the formula of discriminant (b^2 - 4ac):

= 4^2 - 4 * (-6) * (-3)

= 16 - 4 * 18

= -56
