Answer:
Explanation:
- Oceanic Plate
- Subduction Zone
- Convection Currents
- Asthenosphere
- Continental Plate
The Oceanic Plate is located near the ocean ridge. Which represents where magma creates new oceanic crust.
The Subduction Zone is where the tectonic plates meet. These are called plate boundaries.
Convection Currents are what drives the movement of rigid tectonic plates in Earth's molten mantle.
The Asthenosphere is the upper layer of the mantle. Which is below the lithosphere (Continental Plates).
Continental Plates are the outer shell of the mantle.
Let me know if this helps!
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The answer is A. sometimes that stuff happens
Answer: I would go with B. Here’s why: An index fossil is usually easily recognizable, and underwent a wide geographic distribution. What leads me to believe B is the correct answer, is because it’s something that existed “ all over the world”.
Well I'm not exactly certain where the teacher is going with this, but an often used example is red blood cells (RBCs) aka: erythrocytes.
RBCs are suspended in blood plasma as they flood through vessels around and around the body, so the osmolarity (amount of small particles that affect osmosis) must remain relatively constant. This is termed "isotonic", meaning the same amount of osmosis-influencing particles that are there inside the RBCs' cytosol, within their plasma membranes.
If the plasma osmolarity get too high, called hypertonic (as with extra salt particles) then water inside the RBCs will have an osmotic force driving it out of the cells' membranes, to flow where there are more salt particles. This will lead to cell shrinkage (called "crenation").
Counter to that, if the plasma osmolarity gets too low, as due to low plasma salt with excessive water intake (for example from the condition "water intoxication"), then the plasma will be hypotonic with respect to the intracellular cytosol concentration. This can result in water rushing into the RBCs' membranes via osmosis, causing the cells to swell from discs into spheres (balls), or even rupture and burst (a phenomenon called "hemolysis").
HOPE THOSE EXAMPLES HELP!!
Lunar maria (plural form of the Latin word mare, which means sea) are dark surfaces that can be found all over the moon (17% of the Moon is covered in them) that have been created as a result of volcanic eruptions. These areas are made up of basalt, and given that they seemed almost waterlike, the astronomers in the distant past mistook them for seas, whence their name comes.
When it comes to craters, their origin is quite similar - volcanic eruptions created them. When lava starts erupting from a volcano, it has to get out from somewhere - and thus craters are created. If you are referring to lunar craters, however, there are many speculations as to how they were created: due to volcanic eruptions, meteoric impact, or glacier activity.
