Answer:

a. Earthquakes shake the rocks to slide horizontally, vertically, or side-ward.

Explanation:

The correct answer is - a.Earthquakes shake the rocks to slide horizontally, vertically, or side-ward.

Reason -

A fault is a fracture or zone of fractures between two blocks of rock.

Faults allow the blocks to move relative to each other. This movement may occur rapidly, in the form of an earthquake - or may occur slowly, in the form of creep.

During an earthquake, the rock on one side of the fault suddenly slips with respect to the other.

The fault surface can be horizontal or vertical or some arbitrary angle in between.

Which of the following statements describes a central role that ATP plays in cellular metabolism?
DaniilM [7]

Answer: The correct answer is D. ATP provides energy coupling between exergonic and endergonic reactions.

ATP hydrolysis is an exergonic reaction, as a large amount of energy is released when this molecule is hydrolyzed. ATP is converted into ADP ( adenosine diphosphate)  and inorganic phosphate. The energy released in this reaction is utilized by the endergonic reactions ( which require energy) such as photosynthesis.

Thus, the central role that ATP in cellular metabolism is that it provides energy coupling between exergonic and endergonic reactions.
