A) .was immediately accepted
Explanation:
The theory of plate tectonics was immediately recognized as the explanation for the moving continents. It provided a more scientific background as why continents drift apart and the seafloor keeps spreading.
- The theory explains that the earth is broken up into series of slabs called lithosphere which moves on the weak, ductile and fluid asthenosphere.
- The movement of part of the earth mantle provided the mechanism through which the lithosphere moves. This is now known as the mantle convection.
- This theory provided a scientific mechanism through which the plate moves and seafloor spreads.
- It was immediately accepted when the theory was propounded by Alfred Holmes in the 1930s

Light rays change direction while passing through a lens because they are refracted. Refracted means "to change direction when it enters at an angle."
Each kernel of corn receives one allele from
each parent for the traits of color and texture.
Option B
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Corn kernels are actually the seeds of corn. Corn kernels are formed because of the fertilization of both the Pollen and the ovule of the corn plants. This pollens and the ovules are formed by means of meiosis which takes different alleles of the same gene from both the parents and both the chromosomes of each parents. This is why during meiosis the events of crossing over and independent assortment leads to the variation of characters into the offspring. This is why the kernel colours of the the same ear of the corn remains same. This is how the corn plant receives the the kernel colours from both the parents and their colours remain constant for one particular ear. Also the gene of texture is achieved from both the parents by means of meiosis just like the corn colour. So there also independently assorted.
Answer:
A.
As the clay content increases, there is more surface area in the soil for organic matter to adsorb to, which decreases the rate of decomposition.
Explanation:
This is true because, humus which is the dark rich matter made up of organic matter would be able to be adsorb into the clay content of the soil due to the size of the particles component. <em>The surface area in the soil is a strong factor when compared with other soil type with smaller surface area.</em>
