Why is there no ocean-continent divergence? I need to know I'm just in 6th grade 

Biology

Levart [38]3 years ago

Divergence is due to upwelling mantle thinning and extending the crust when the mantle decompressed and melts basalt is formed. Basalt and other mafic rocks from oceanic crust while continental crust is made up of mostly felsic (but some mafic) rocks. Upwelling mantle does thin continental crust and sometimes this thinning leads to new oceanic basins. Thus oceanic crust is formed from divergent oceanic plates (at mid oceanic rifts) and continental crust can become oceanic crust when upwelling mantle rifts continents into new oceanic basins

Strobe lighting tends to create hot spots and can make a portrait uncomfortable for the individual. True or false.

This is false, strobe lightening does not create hot spots. It actually gives a lot of light and isn't hot at all.

Which statement best defines a protist?
Helga [31]
Protists obtain food in 3 ways. They produce their own organic molecules, ingest, and absorb.  Ingestive protists ingest food, or engulf bacteria. These protists extend their cell wall and cell membrane forming a food vacuole around the food item. Inside the food vacuole, enzymes digest the food. Absorptive protists on the other hand, absorb food molecules  across their cell membrane which takes place through diffusion. Absorptive protists play a key role in decomposition. They are considered as important decomposers. Major producers  like photosynthetic protists  use light energy to manufacture  their own food.<span>
