A

Sea floor spreading occurs in divergent boundaries where new crust is being formed

Explanation:

The earth's magnetic field is NOT static. There have been about 4 -5  flips in the last 10 million years. Earth's magnetic field affects the orientation of highly ferromagnetic ions on earth such as iron. These ions align with the earth's magnetic fields. Magma has significant iron content and when it gets to the surface, these ions align with the earth's magnetic fields before the magma cools to solid rock forming bands on the rocks. At divergent boundaries, these bands are evident on the newly formed crust when magma rises to replace the void from the diverging tectonic plates. Some of these bands align in the opposite orientation and provide evidence of when the earth’s magnetic field flipped. Even during magma flow in a volcanic eruption, when the magma, with high iron content, cools, bands on the rocks are evident due to this phenomenon.

What is the purpose of using reverse transcription
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

reverse transcriptase (RT) is an enzymeused to generate complementary DNA (cDNA) from an RNA template, a process termed reverse transcription. Reverse transcriptases are used by retroviruses to replicate their genomes, by retrotransposon mobile genetic elements to proliferate within the host genome, by eukaryotic cells to extend the telomeres at the ends of their linear chromosomes, and by some non-retroviruses such as the hepatitis B virus, a member of the Hepadnaviridae.

6 chromosomes. This is because gametes are usually characterised as to having only half the number of chromosomes of the somatic cells.
This is done through meiotic division.

Explain health in biology​
poizon [28]

Answer:

The World Health Organization defines health as "the state of complete physical, mental, and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." In either sense, health is a state of action that includes prevention, care, and individual responsibility to achieve optimal health.

What is required to keep a resource sustainable.
Gelneren [198K]

The answer is A. This ensures that the resource has enough time to regenerate so as to sustain consumption. An example is that of the carrying capacity of a habitat. If a herd of cows exceed the carrying capacity of the  grazeland, the grass will be depleted and the area will be predisposed to desertification. The environment will not be able to sustain the cows anymore until the herd number reduce.
