New ocean crust is formed at?

Biology
2 answers:
Vera_Pavlovna [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Ocean crust is continuously formed at mid- ocean ridge. As the plates separates at these ridges and the surrounding magma rises into the upper crust and mantle.

As it moves away from the ridge, the lithosphere seems to be cooler  and denser and the sediments built on the top. The youngest layer is created at the oceanic ridge and the older ones get away with time.

Example of ocean crust is Gakkel ridge under atlantic ocean

It is formed at Divergent boundaries, two tectonic plates diverge from one another. New oceanic crust is being formed by hot molten rock slowly cooling and solidifying. The crust is very thin.

Calculate the net force on the Fx and Fy<br> of<br> 20 N<br> 17 N<br> 45.50<br> 250
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

F_{net} is 26.25 N

Explanation:

Given that: F_{x} = 20 N, F_{y} = 17 N.

This implies that the two forces are acting at right angle to each other. Thus applying the Pythagoras theorem, we have;

F_{net} = \sqrt{F_{x} ^{2} + F_{y} ^{2}  }

       = \sqrt{(20)^{2} + (17)^{2}  }

       = \sqrt{400 + 289}

F_{net} = \sqrt{689}

      = 26.2488

F_{net} = 26.25 N

The net force is 26.25 N.

Which of the following is NOT a function of hormones?
sammy [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

I believe the correct answer is D. React to stimuli from outside the body.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hormones are types of proteins that produce responses hand in hand with neurons but they are much slower and longer lasting. They can act on the same cells and in that instance they will be called autocrine hormones. Those that act on neighbouring cells are called paracrine hormones while those that act on far away cells are called endocrine hormones.

<h2>Further Explanation:</h2><h3>a. Initiate behavior and reproduction:</h3>

This is a function of hormone(s). Hormones such as testosterone can initiate both behavior of an organism and also stimulate reproduction. Testosterone causes maturation of sex features and sperms in males to initiate reproduction. Other hormones with such functions include: Estrogen and adrenaline.

<h3>b. Coordinate the production and use of energy:</h3>

Some hormones conduct this function by regulation metabolism in the body. These include: Insulin in intake of glucose for energy and glucagon in maintaining blood glucose levels. Corticosterone also responds in stress to maintain energy.

<h3>c. Maintain nutrition and metabolism:</h3>

Nutrition can be maintained by hormones such as ghrelin that stimulates appetite, insulin in intake of glucose, leptin and glucagon.

<h3>d. React to stimuli from outside the body</h3>

This is not a function of a hormone but rather the function of a neuron. Neurons have specific structures called denrites that recieve signals/stimuli from outside the body then convert them to nerve impulses that are transmitted to the brain which produces another impulse to be taken to a specific site to produce a desired response.

How do plants and snails affect the CO2 and O2 gases in an aquatic environment
frez [133]

Answer:

Water plants will absorb carbon dioxide for photosynthesis, and some plants will also absorb ammonia (as a source of nitrogen for growth). Aquatic animals like fish and snails absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide directly into water through specialized structures like gills.

The chart below shows the three main types of plant tissues and associated tissues. mc003-1.jpg Which row (A, B, C, or D) best c
katrin [286]
I found the exercise on the internet. Attached is the chart and the rows. On the left we have "plant tissue", then on the middle top - "dermal" - and just below - "ground". Straight in front of "ground", the term is "c<span>ollenchyma".

The correct row would be D.
1. is vascular because that's the other type of plant tissue besides the ones that are already present in the chart.
2. and 3. - s</span>clerenchyma and parenchyma - are indeed types of ground tissues next to collenchyma.
4. and 5. - x<span>ylem and phloem - are the types of tissues present in vascular plants, they work as vessels where water and nutrients are conducted.</span>
