Answer:

The correct answer would be A. crust.

The crust is the outermost layer of the earth which is composed of different types of rocks such as sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks.

It is completely solid and can be broadly classified into two types: continental crust and oceanic crust.

The thickness of the oceanic crust is about 5 km to 10 km. It is primarily composed of basalt, gabbro, and diabase.

The thickness of the continental crust is around 30 km to 50 km.  

The crust forms lithosphere along with hard and upper mantle.

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Intermediate Product Accumulation

Explanation:

If one of the crucial enzyme say B is mutated in the process of normal product formation, then the reaction will not proceed further from that point and accumulation of an intermediate product in the cell takes place. The mutation in the enzyme could be environmental or genetic but it will surely alter the enzyme functioning. In the end, the damage malfunctioning cell will be removed using the process of apoptosis.

How would you account for the fact that fossils of fish are not present in the older layers of rock?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The fish did not yet exist when the old layers of rocks were deposited. In fact, animals with hard parts did not evolve until about 600 million years ago, which is only about 13% of the 4.5 billion year age of the Earth. Multicellular animals without hard parts left tracks in older sediments, but had no fossilize-able body parts.

If a gene is found only on the X chromosome and not the Y chromosome, it is said to be what?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Sex-linked trait

Explanation:

When a gene is present on the X chromosome, but not on the Y chromosome, it is said to be X-linked. X-linked genes have different inheritance patterns than genes on non-sex chromosomes (autosomes). That's because these genes are present in different copy numbers in males and females.
