Why do volcanoes occur

Biology
2 answers:
Fantom [35]2 years ago

Volcanoes occur because of the position of the crust over a plate boundary or a 'hot spot' in the Earth's mantle. Continental volcanoes form when subducted crust melts to magma against the mantle, then is forced upward under pressure through cracks in the rocks above.

"Because it is lighter than the solid rock around it , magma rises and collects in magma chambers . Eventually some of the magma pushes through the vents and fissures in the earth's surface ".
And then a volcanic eruption occurs

The second messenger in the following G-protein-linked-receptor pathway is signal moleculeG protein linked receptor activated G
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Answer is D - cAMP.

Explanation:

cAMP is a small molecule that functions as an intracellular signaling molecule - a second messenger. The first messenger would be the thing that activated the GPCR (e.g. a hormone). The GPCR is a signal transducer (converts extracellular signal to intracellular signal). Once activated, the GPCR activates  adenylate cyclase which can be called a signal effector - it is an enzyme that produces cAMP.

Genetically identical armadillos were kept in the same controlled environment from birth and provided the same diet. Even though
Vlada [557]

Phenotypic variations in genetically identical organisms that grow in the same controlled environment may be due to mutation.

<h3>Mutation</h3>

This refers to a sudden change to the DNA sequence of living organisms.

When the DNA base sequence of organisms changes, the effect is shown in the morphology of organisms.

For organisms that are genetically identical but grow in different environments, phenotypic variations might exist as a result of environmentally acquired traits during the struggle to adapt to their environments.

In the same environment, however, genetically identical organisms are not expected to be phenotypically different, unless a mutation to the DNA of one has occurred.
