Answer

The process responsible for forming the Islands of Japan is convergent boundary zones

Explanation

A convergent plate boundary happens when two oceanic plates collide making one of the plate to undergo subduction (the older plate). The effect of this type of boundary is destruction of oceanic lithosphere, deep earthquakes, series of volcanic islands and formation of an oceanic trench.The Eastern Caribbean Islands of Martinique is another good example.

The answer is A: convergent boundary zones. The various Japanese islands formed due to the subduction of the Philippine Sea Plate below the continental Amurian Plate and Okinawa Plate to the south, and subduction of the Pacific Plate under the Okhotsk Plate to the north. This occurred during the mid-Silurian to the Pleistocene . This explains why much of Japan is mountainous.

horsena [70]

Answer:

a.Many mitochondrial genes resemble proteobacteria genes, while the genes in the chloroplast resemble genes found in some photosynthetic bacteria.

c.Mitochondria and chloroplasts both have their own circular DNA and 70S ribosomes that are similar to those found in bacteria.

d.Mitochondria and chloroplasts replicate by a process similar to mitosis.

Explanation:

Endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria and chloroplast which are organelles of eukaryotic cells were once independently living micro-organisms but with due course of time eukaryotic cells engulfed them and they become an integral part of these eukaryotic cells.

The resemblance between mitochondrial genes with those of proteobacteria and chloroplast genes with photosynthetic bacteria strongly support endosymbiotic theory. Apart from this, the presence of their own DNA that too circular just like prokaryotic microbes and 70 S ribosomes also support this theory. Also just like prokaryotic cells, before cell division mitochondria and chloroplasts undergo replication by means of a process known as binary fission.
