HELP!! Are the Earth's ocean floor and continents the same age geologically? Why or why not?​

Biology
1 answer:
kozerog [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

No, the ocean floor is much younger because new crust forms there.

Explanation:

The Earth's ocean floor and the continents are not the same age geologically. The ocean floor is much younger because new crust forms there. New crust is usually formed at the oceanic spreading centers. This process takes place when the oceanic plates pull apart, and molten lava wells up from the mantle to fill the openings. This effectively functions as a recycling system for the oceanic lithosphere.

In Avery's experiment, he used DNase, RNase or proteinase to treat the heat killed S strain to see what component in the debris
nevsk [136]

Answer:

S strain

Explanation:

The Avery experiment demonstrated DNA is the genetic material. It expanded upon the findings made by Griffith.

They used Pneumococcus; Smooth strain which was virulent and the Rough which was not.

Cultures of heat killed smooth strain were prepared after which it was treated with DNases ,RNases and Proteinases to remove DNA, RNA, and proteins respectively. It will then be introduced to living Rough strain.

When treated with RNases only the RNA will be destroyed and transformation will take place leading to colonies of S stains being formed.

Only when treated with DNase did the colonies S strain fail to be formed.

Considering that nearly 85 percent of corn crops are genetically engineered, which impact does genetically engineered corn have
atroni [7]
Genetically modified crops are genetically engineered such that a desired trait is enhanced or reproduced to appear in every offspring. Genetically engineered corn has been engineered to resist pests and herbicides; thus, we have more yield and many people especially in the low class society can afford. A disadvantage, yet is still a debate, is that genetically engineered crops such as corn, has toxic effects to internal organs such as our liver, a vital internal organ.
