Answer: A. It enlarges continental landmasses and forms mountains along the edges of continents.

The accretion is a process in which small objects, matter or particles gets aggregated to form a large object, landmass due to the affect of gravitational force acting on these entities. Example of accretion process includes formation of galaxies, stars, planets and mountains. Mountains are formed at the edges of continents because of accumulation of debris and sediments released between the edges is an example of accretion process.

This type of inheritance pattern shows BOTH traits in possible offspringand is not a blending or intermediate
olganol [36]

Answer:

The correct answer is - d. codominance.

Explanation:

Complete dominance is the pattern of inheritance where one allele masked the other allele completely in a heterozygous condition. Incomplete dominance is a pattern of inheritance where both the alleles blend or form intermediate phenotype in heterozygous condition.

The codominance pattern of inheritance is similar to the incomplete dominance but instead of making a blend of both alleles, it expresses both alleles together in patches or pattern.
