Biology

dalvyx [7]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is - Plate A is continental and plate B is oceanic.

On this image we can see two plates moving towards each other. The plate marked with the letter A is a continental plate, while the plate marked with the letter B is an oceanic plate.

We can also see that the oceanic plate is subducting bellow the continental plate, and the reason for that is that the oceanic plate is lower, denser, and heavier, thus it sinks bellow. Also we can notice the volcanic mountain, which is a result of the subduction zone, because the high temperatures, pressures, and magma from the mantle layer are able to penetrate towards the surface, thus resulting in volcanic activity.

In DNA fingerprinting explain how DNA moves through the gel
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

B. The smaller DNA pieces travel farthest towards the positive end of the box

Explanation:

Gel-electrophoresis technique is a technique which is used to separate the fragments of DNA based on their size. The technique is employed in the DNA fingerprint analysis.

The DNA samples are loaded on one side of the gel and when an electric current is applied, the DNA moves from the wells towards the electrodes.

The DNA is a negatively charged molecule which travels through pores in the gel and reaches towards the electrode with positive charge. The smaller the size of the DNA fragment, the faster it moves.

Thus, Option-B is correct.

Complete the sentence. ____________ affects the way heat is distributed on Earth's surface.
enyata [817]

Earth's tilt on its axis affects the way heat is distributed on Earth's surface.

The Earth orbits the sun every 365 ¼ days. The Earth is tilted 23.5 degrees on its axis, which affects the distribution of the sun’s energy across the surface of the planet. More tilt means more severe seasons, that is warmer summers and colder winters where as less tilt means less severe seasons, that is cooler summers and milder winters.

olga nikolaevna [1]
So we all know that the Earth rotates around the Solar system all the time nonstop. But wait there is more. One half of the Earth which is North America and South America are faced to the sun so you can tell that we are in summer. While we are in summer,the other half of the Earth which is Europe,Africa,Asia and Austrialia ( I think I spelled that wrong who cares about that) they are in winter. This process continues nonstop there is no break.
