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.

Students are investigating the distribution of dandelions using quadrats.
Drupady [299]

Students are investigating the distribution of dandelions using quadrats. The students could during their investigation is they can do the pH test and the effect if it is happening or not.

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

pH is the measurement of the acidity or alkalinity of a substance. PH is a scale that marks from 0 to 12. The substance above 7 is acidic and the substance that is basic comes after 7. 7 is the number for neutral, which is pure water. The pH test is very easy to conduct.

To be sure that pH of the soil will not affect the distribution of dandelions. They first test the pH of the soil.

Why did scientists FIRST hypothesize that a meteorite impact caused the extinction at the K-Pg Boundary? They found evidence of
Rudiy27

Answer:

They found evidence of an impact crater in Mexico

Explanation:

The K-Pg boundary is the boundary between the Cretaceous period and the Paleogene period, but also marking the end of the Mesozoic era and the beginning of the Cenozoic era. This boundary is dated to roughly 66 million years ago. The K-Pg boundary is characterized with a mass extinction. The dominant organisms on Earth all died out, including the dinosaurs, both terrestrial and aquatic, as well as the flying reptilians, with only the birds surviving from that super-family. The reason for the mass extinction has been an impact with an asteroid or a comet, that was very large and hit the Earth where the Yucatan Peninsula in modern day Mexico is located. The impact was devastating, with heat waves, tsunamis, earthquakes, triggering of the majority of the volcanoes, wildfires, all combined managed to devastate the environment, thus big portion of the species living in it as well. The lucky survivors were smaller organisms, and the mammals turned out to be the most successful in occupying the empty niches and have became the dominant organisms on the planet.

The endosymbiotic theory states that eukaryotes evolved from prokaryotes. Which statement is part of the endosymbiotic
tatyana61 [14]

Note about the question:

Statements are missing, and I failed to find the complete question. So here I give you some details about the theory that will help you to indetify the correct statement.  

Answer and Explanation:                            

The endosymbiotic theory essentially states that some organelles of the eukaryotic cells, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, were once free-living bacteria. Probably, these organisms must have been phagocytosed but not digested by another cell. On the contrary, these bacteria were able to adapt to their host in such a way that the two cells established a dependent relationship with each other.

It is speculated that chloroplasts derivate from cyanobacteria and that mitochondria derivate from rickettsias.

Cells would be beneficiated from this new bond, at the point that they could not survive by themselves anymore.

This theory is supported by a few characteristics of the chloroplasts and mitochondria that suggest that they once were a free cell. For example,

  • Both organelles present their genetic material. This DNI is independent of the cell´s DNA, is bi-catenary and circular, identical to the bacterial DNA, and very different from the one of the eukaryotic cells.
  • These organelles do not divide by mitosis. Instead, they do it by binary fission and are capable of synthesizing their ribosomes and organelles.
  • Both organelles present a double membrane, a characteristic that reinforces the idea of being phagocyted. The internal membrane looks identical to the bacteria membrane, while the external membrane looks like the eukaryotic one.
  • In fact, in this internal membrane are placed the energy centers, exactly as it occurs in bacterias membrane.
  • Finally, the sizes of the organelles are similar to the size of some procaryotes.
