Determine whether each example represents continental drift or sea floor spreading.
laila [671]

Answer:

Sea floor spreading-> <u><em>Oceanic ridge and Magma pushing two plates apart</em></u>

Continental drift-> <u><em>Concept of pangaea and Oceanic plates sliding under continental crust</em></u>

Explanation:

Due to the divergent plate movement, the magma come out to the surface, forming the mid oceanic ridge and this separation of plates on the sea floor is known as the sea floor spreading. The magma here pushes the two plates to move apart because of the convection current that generates in the mantle. One example of mid oceanic ridge is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

  Continental drift refers to the slow and gradual movement of the lithospheric plates over the viscous asthenosphere layer. This motion of continents takes place because of the plate tectonic movement. Due to this plate motion, the denser plate gets subducts beneath the less denser plates. For example, the oceanic crust when collides with a continental crust, it gets subducted because of its higher density. The great supercontinent "pangaea" also formed and separated due to this plate motion.

Answer:

Natural selection.

Explanation:

Natural selection is when organisms who are most adapted to their environment survive and pass on their genes while those with "unfit" genes die and don't get the chance to reproduce! This slowly creates a population that is most well suited to their habitat. Hope this helps again LOL! :)

In aquatic ecosystems, phytoplankton and other photosynthetic organisms appear in the upper layer of the water, but not deeper l
Stels [109]

Answer: alternative A

Explanation: The deeper the layer in water, the <u>less light reaches it</u>. In deeper layers, therefore, it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to photosynthesis to occur. Having in mind that <u>phytoplankton  and photosynthetic organisms depend on photosynthesis to survive,</u> they won't appear in such dephts.
