The process of passing genetic material from one generation to the next depends completely on how cells grow and divide. To reproduce, a simple organism such as bacteria or yeast simply copies its DNA (through a process called replication) and splits in two. But organisms that reproduce sexually go through a complicated dance that includes mixing and matching strands of DNA (a process called recombination) and then reducing the amount of DNA in special sex cells to arrive at completely new genetic combinations for their offspring.

There are two basic kinds of organisms — ones with a nucleus and those without a nucleus (a compartment filled with DNA surrounded by a membrane called a nuclear envelope):

<span>Prokaryotes: Organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and therefore have DNA floating loosely in the liquid center of the cell. Prokaryotes divide, and thus reproduce, by simple mitosis.</span><span>Eukaryotes: Organisms that have a well-defined nucleus to house and protect the DNA. Eukaryotes divide by meiosis for sexual reproduction.</span>

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The continental plate is the  location where volcanoes form when the convection in the asthenosphere creates a column of material that rises until it reaches the crust.

Explanation:

Volcanoes form at the edges of Earth’s tectonic plates. When the continental plate moves over the oceanic plate, it causes the oceanic plate to descend into the mantle where some of it melts, and the molten material moves into the mantle above the plate and causes the mantle to melt.

This liquid rock, called magma, rises to the surface because it is less dense then the surrounding rock, a volcano forms when the magma reaches the surface of the Earth at the continental plate.
