D)Heat within Earth

Explanation:

The heat from within the earth is as a result of plate tectonics. Plates on the earth are driven by heat within the earth through convection currents.

  • Plate tectonics suggests that the earth are broken into slabs that moves on the weak and ductile material called asthenosphere.
  • Heat from within the earth causes the melting of asthenosphere.
  • The riding lithosphere which is cold will sink into the asthenoshpere.
  • Hot mantle materials will move to the surface thereby setting up a convection current.
  • Heat from within the earth rises to the surface due to plate movement.

Which of the following is true regarding speciation and mechanisms of evolution?
UNO [17]

Speciation is one of the driving processes of evolution and results in the formation of new species.

<h3>What is evolution?</h3>

Evolution is the process by which new organisms are formed from existing organisms due to changes that result in increasing complexity of the organisms.

Speciation is the process by which new species are formed from existing species.

Therefore, it can be concluded that speciation is one of the driving processes of evolution.

For a science fair project, two students decided to repeat the Hershey and Chase experiment, with modifications. They decided to
posledela

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-E

Explanation:

Hershey and Chase's experiment was performed to test whether DNA serves as the genetic material or protein.

To perform experiment they grew bacteriophage into radiolabeled phosphorus and sulfur compounds. The phosphorus is an integral part of the structure of DNA whereas proteins contain sulfur in their structure.  

In the given condition if radiolabeled nitrogen is utilized then the experiment will fail as the structure of proteins also contains an amino group( NH₂) in their structure as well as DNA. The scientist will not be able to identify whether the DNA is the genetic material or protein.

Thus, option-E is the correct answer.

How do microscopes differ in magnification and resolution?
Verizon [17]

1.Magnification is the ability of optical instruments, such as a telescope or a microscope, to make an object bigger while resolution is the ability of optical instruments to produce images that are clearer, finer, and sharper.

2.Resolution is the power of an optical instrument to capture and produce more details of an image while magnification is the power of an instrument to create and produce a much larger image of an object.

3.Resolution can be expressed in arcsec or seconds while magnification can be expressed by a whole number and the letter “X.”

4.Although both are dependent upon each other, a high magnification does not always guarantee a high resolution.

5.Magnification allows us to see small objects, especially those that are not visible to the naked eye, while resolution allows us to see these objects more clearly and with more details.
