Answer;

The elastic rebound theory suggest that; Most earthquakes are produced by the rapid release of energy stored in rock that has been subjected to great forces.

Explanation;

The elastic rebound theory was suggested by Henry Feilding Reid, who made observations and summarized that the earthquake occurs as a consequence of an elastic rebound of  elastic strain energy that was previously stored in the rocks on either side of the fault.

The elastic-rebound theory explains how energy is produced when an earthquake occurs. According to this theory as adjoining plates on the Earth's surface move in opposite directions, then the rocks which span the opposing sides of the incipient fault are subjected to extreme shear stress.

Distance runners include aerobic training as part of preparation for races. How does this impact their cellular respiration?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer and Explanation:

Running or jogging comes under the category of aerobic training/exercise. By definition, aerobic exercise means that the person is training her/his body in the presence of excessive oxygen. So, metabolically speaking, the person is relying on availability of oxygen to carry out metabolism which is mainly about production/supply of energy (ATP) by the breakdown of food in the presence of oxygen. This process is also known as cellular respiration. So, if a person is doing aerobic exercise (running), s/he needs more energy to keep doing the exercise. Typically, aerobic exercise produce more energy (32 molecules of ATP) as compared to anaerobic process (2 molecules of ATP) per reaction run. Thus, In the process of aerobic exercise, the lungs will respire faster to allow more diffusion of oxygen in the blood. Then, this oxygen will be transported to all body by heart pumping and then oxygen enters the cells. Once oxygen is entered, it acts as terminal electron acceptor in a process known as oxidative phosphorylation. This process takes plance in the mitochondria and produces 32 molecules of ATP per reaction.

a purple flower with an unknown genotype crosses with a white flower. determine the genotype of the purple flower if purple(P) i
yan [13]
This sounds like a test cross. Because P is dominant, the purple flower could have a genotype of Pp or PP. If all of the offspring of the test cross are purple, then the purple flower has genotype PP. If half of the offspring of the test cross have purple and half have white, then the purple parental flower's genotype is Pp.
