There are number of endemic species, because island isolation promotes allopatric speciation and the latter occurs when species become separated from each other to the level that prevents genetic recombination.
Lunar maria (plural form of the Latin word mare, which means sea) are dark surfaces that can be found all over the moon (17% of the Moon is covered in them) that have been created as a result of volcanic eruptions. These areas are made up of basalt, and given that they seemed almost waterlike, the astronomers in the distant past mistook them for seas, whence their name comes.
When it comes to craters, their origin is quite similar - volcanic eruptions created them. When lava starts erupting from a volcano, it has to get out from somewhere - and thus craters are created. If you are referring to lunar craters, however, there are many speculations as to how they were created: due to volcanic eruptions, meteoric impact, or glacier activity.
False.
Any time a scientific theory is challenged, it means it's not a good
theory. And this statement is not valid. In theoretical models, they are
revisited when there are further studies and discoveries found in a certain
area where they can be remodeled and reintegrated instead of disregarding its
credibility. Models, theories and paradigms are not challenged but rather
encouraged, they are supported in many studies since these theories and models
were created in order for us to understand a certain phenomenon but it would
likely help the scientific society to be updated in the new forms or spheres of
improvement rather than discouragement.
A daughter looking different from both her mother and father illustrates the process of meiosis because the cells produced are non-identical to the original cells.
