How does plate movement affect the formation of folded mountains?

Biology
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

the movement of the Earth's plates results in the folding and faulting of the Earth's surface due to processes such as compression, tension and shearing, and in doing so, deform and rearrange the Earth's crust

Explanation:

created where two or more of Earth's tectonic plates are pushed together. At these colliding, compressing boundaries, rocks and debris are warped and folded into rocky outcrops, hills, mountains, and entire mountain ranges.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Insect flight muscles [Mitochondria]

Cells lining the respiratory passages [Cilia]

White blood cells that engulf and destroy invading bacteria [Lysosomes]

Leaf cells of cacti [Chloroplasts]

Goblet cells lining the intestinal tract that secrete mucus [Golgi apparatus]

Pancreatic cells that are responsible for creating several digestive enzymes (proteins) [Ribosomes]

Explanation:

Mitochondria are cell organelles whose main function is energy generation during respiration. They generate energy in the form of ATP which is then used by the cells and tissues for various metabolic function. Mitochondria are abundant in cells whose energy requirements are high such as muscle cells. Therefore, insects flight muscles will have an abundance of mitochondria.

Cilia are finger-like projections on respiratory surfaces whose sweep-like movements help to move particles and fluids out of the airways. In the trachea, the cilia trap particles like bacteria and viruses and then move these trapped particles along with mucus up to the pharynx where it is either coughed out or swallowed into gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, respiratory surfaces like the trachea will have an abundance of cilia.

Lysosome are cell organelles which function to destroy and digest foreign and cellular proteins in the cell. They have an abundance of proteolytic enzymes which degrade proteins at acidic pH. Therefore, white blood cells that engulf and destroy invading bacteria will have an abundance of ysosomes.

Chloroplasts are plant cells organelles which are the sites for photosynthesis. It is abundant in the leaves of plants where photosynthesis mainly take place. Therefore, leaf cells of cacti will have an abundance of chloroplasts.

Golgi apparatus is a cell organelle that helps process and package proteins and lipid molecules, especially those that are to be secreted outside the cell, packaging them into vessicles. They also make and secrete mucus. Therefore, goblet cells lining the intestinal tract that secrete mucus will have an abundance of Golgi apparatus.

Ribosomes are cell organelles whose main function is to synthesize proteins, both for intracellular and extracellular purposes. Proteins such as hormones, enzymes etc, are synthesized by the ribosomes. Therefore, pancreatic cells that are responsible for creating several digestive enzymes (proteins) will have an abundance of ribosomes.

The right answer is blastocyst.


The blastocystic Stage of embryo development is characterized by the formation in the center of the morula (embryonic cell group) of a cavity isolated from the external environment: the blastocoele.

In embryonic development, this step precedes gastrulation.

Blastocysts are indeed composed of a hundred cells; they have the shape of a hollow sphere at the bottom of which is the mound of the "embryonic bud" from which the embryonic stem cells are derived.
