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

What's the difference between active immunity and passive immunity?
Paha777 [63]

The difference between active and passive immunity is that your body produces antibodies in active immunity and in passive immunity, the antibodies are made outside the body. (D)

What is active and passive immunity?

Active immunity is a type of immunity that occurs when the immune system of a person is responsible for protecting them from a pathogen or from an infection.

Passive immunity is a type of immunity that involves the introduction of antibodies from another person or from outside the body of a person.

Antibodies are produced by an individual in active immunity but in passive immunity, antibodies are being transferred to an individual to help boost their immune system in fighting diseases.

Thus, the difference between active and passive immunity is that your body produces antibodies in active immunity and in passive immunity, the antibodies are made outside the body. (D)
