I believe you mean mid-ocean ridge?
If so, true.
A mid-ocean ridge or mid-oceanic ridge is an underwater mountain range, formed by plate tectonics.
This uplifting of the ocean floor occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.
A mid-ocean ridge demarcates the boundary between two tectonic plates, and consequently is termed a divergent plate boundary.
Gravity: A force that keeps things in place sonit doesnt float around.
Mass: The amount of matter or substance that makes up an object
Weight: How heavy or light something is
Inertia: property of matter by which it continues in its existing state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, unless that state is changed by an external force.
Answer and Explanation:
1. The biggest similarity between the main types of vertebrae is the location where they are found since they are all established on the body's back, precisely on the midline of the back. The main differences, on the other hand, are related to the size and weight of each of them.
2. The similarities exist because all the vertebrae have to promote the support of the body, the back being the most appropriate place for them to establish themselves.
3. The differences are related to the function and type of support that each vertebrae promotes, the higher the level of systemization, the larger and thicker the vertebrae must be.
4. The caudal vertebrae should be similar to the vertebrae of the coccix, since a tail would be a representation of elongation of the coccix. We can reach this conclusion through the analysis of images that promote the visualization of this area of the body.
