Answer:

(b) The sharp reduction in calcium carbonate below a depth of about 4000 meters in ocean A is due to increase carbonate dissolution. Carbonate dissolution results from the corrosiveness of seawater, which increases as temperature decreases, pressure increases and carbonate-ion content decreases.

Black_prince [1.1K]
Seamount and guyot are types of mountain - so we can reject those options, since we're looking for a flat surface, not a mountain.

A trench is a narrow ditch, or  depression so also it's not a plain

The correct answer is abyssal plain - it's a plain typically next to a continental rise (leading to the continent) and a mid-ocean ridge.

How do cells separate from each other?
Aliun [14]

There are two types of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. Most of the time when people refer to “cell division,” they mean mitosis, the process of making new body cells. Meiosis is the type of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells.

Mitosis is a fundamental process for life. During mitosis, a cell duplicates all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells. Because this process is so critical, the steps of mitosis are carefully controlled by a number of genes. When mitosis is not regulated correctly, health problems such as cancer can result.

The other type of cell division, meiosis, ensures that humans have the same number of chromosomes in each generation. It is a two-step process that reduces the chromosome number by half—from 46 to 23—to form sperm and egg cells. When the sperm and egg cells unite at conception, each contributes 23 chromosomes so the resulting embryo will have the usual 46. Meiosis also allows genetic variation through a process of DNA shuffling while the cells are dividing.

Explain the difference between actual and potential resources and why is a distinction is important. Do the same for renewable a
frosja888 [35]
<span>Potential resources are those that may be used at some future point, but are not being used now, like actual resources. Renewable resources are those that are continually replenished while nonrenewable resources are produced over such long periods of time that they are not considered replenishable. The distinctions are important because resources that are actively being used, actual resources, impact people's daily lives. And if these resources are nonrenewable, rather than renewable, they can only be used for a limited period of time.</span>

How does air flow when a low-pressure center occurs in the atmosphere?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

A low pressure system has lower pressure at its center than the areas around it. Winds blow towards the low pressure, and the air rises in the atmosphere where they meet. As the air rises, the water vapor within it condenses, forming clouds and often precipitation.
