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

Biology

Levart [38]2 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

36. What metabolic pathway is depicted below?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Anaerobic respiration or fermentation

Explanation:

The metabolic pathway shown in the question is the summary of anaerobic respiration (fermentation) during which pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde, followed by the formation of alcohol (ethanol), along with the release of NADH and NAD molecules. This mechanism occurs in the absence of oxygen and is thus used by organisms to generate energy (ATP) molecules.

In order for an statonary object to move, an unbalnced force must act upon it.<br> True<br> False
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

true

Explanation:

any force can be added to make a stationary object move. but if it was balanced then it would just stay in position

if there is 100N of force going towards the object, and you are pushing the object with 100N force. It  will not move.

In translation, the cell uses the genetic information contained in mRNA to make the proteins that carry out the cell's work.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer: d). UAG

Explanation: During translation, DNA sequence is first of all copied into an mRNA in a process known as transcription. This is the first step in protein synthesis. The mRNA is used as a template in protein synthesis. The genetic information encoded in an mRNA are in form of codons. A Codon is a three nucleotide sequence that codes for a specific amino acid. These codons are recognized by anticodons in a tRNA molecule. An anticodon is a three-base sequence on the tRNA through which tRNA base pair with mRNA.

From the DNA sequence above, 3'TAG will first be transcribed into an mRNA sequence AUC, then the anticodon on the tRNA will be UAG. The mRNA codon-tRNA anticodon base pairing follows the Watson and Crick base pairing in which Adenine pairs with Uracil and Cytosine pairs with Guanine.
