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.
Populations tend to grow because of repopulation.
Proteins have structural roles throughout the body. Carbohydrates are the major energy source for cells in the body. I am unsure if lipids or nucleic acids apply.
Correct answer: B). Cells spend the most time in interphase, where they grow and their DNA replicates.
The cell spends its most of the time in the interphase, during this phase of growth, cell continues to grow and carry out its metabolic activities which are necessary for regular growth and maintenance.
During this phase of the cell cycle, a lot of protein is synthesized in order to double its size. The important changes that occur in this phase include DNA duplication and division of chloroplast and mitochondria.
Hence, the correct answer would be option B.
