<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

B. The oldest crust is closest to the mid-ocean ridge.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Seafloor spreading refers to the process by which new oceanic crust forms along a mid-ocean ridge and older oceanic crust moves away from the ridge. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Seafloor spreading occurs at the mid-oceanic ridge where the divergent boundaries cause two plates to move away from each other resulting to the spreading of the sea floor.</u></em>
  • <em><u>As the divergent plates move apart, new materials wells up and then cools at the edge of the plates. Seafloor spreading is important as it helps explain the continental drift in support of the theory of plate tectonics.</u></em>

Nataly_w [17]


They are composed of long chains of amino acids.

The building blocks of protein are amino acids. Amino acids are organic molecules made up an alpha (center) carbon atom which is linked to an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom and  a variable component  known as a side chain.

Amino acids are joined to each other by peptide bonds  to form either a short chain called an oligopeptide or  a long chain called a polypeptide.  These chains are what forms the protein.

Cyclins and Cdks, which are positive regulators of the cell cycle, activate cell cycle factors that are essential for the start of the next cell cycle phase.

Explanation:

Listen to pronunciation. (sel-SY-kul REH-gyoo-LAY-shun) Any process that controls the series of events by which a cell goes through the cell cycle. During the cell cycle, a cell makes a copy of its DNA and other contents, and divides in two.
