Option A, Exfoliation, is the right answer.

The effects of fluctuating temperature on the rocks that causes the rock to break apart from the massive rock are known as Physical weathering. Freeze-thaw (occurs due to the water leakage into clefts, freezing and extending, and finally separating the rock) and Exfoliation (occurs as clefts form equal to the surface of the land a result of the conversion in pressure through uplift and abrasion) are the two chief varieties of physical weathering.

Thus, Exfoliation is the separation of consecutive thin crusts from huge rock such as basalt or granite.

Succession Interactive!

Answer: All of these are true (besides the one that says that none are true...).

Explanation:

The ecological succession is a slow change in the living community of the ecosystem along with the changes occurring in the non-living environment until the ecosystem attains stability.

The primary succession can be defined as the initial level of succession. This succession begins in the primitive environment. The soil develops after the weathering process of rocks.

The secondary succession begins in the region where life forms existed before and the area begin damaged by the catostrophic event like forest fire, earthquake and other type of calamities. Some remaining plant parts can give birth to the entire colony of plants.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

<h2> Replication: DNA  into DNA, and RNA primer are required;</h2><h2>Transcription/RNA processing: pre mRNA and then mRNA;</h2><h2>Translation: tRNA, rRNA</h2>

Explanation:

1. During replication,  a semi-conservative copy of a DNA molecule is made with the help of various enzymes and RNA primer.

2. Transcription/RNA processing: mRNA

During transcription, the DNA "message" ( in the form of codon) is copied into  mRNA.

3. Translation: tRNA, rRNA

During translation, the information carried in the mRNA is translated into protein with the help of molecules of tRNA and rRAN to build a protein on the ribosomes.
