Which of the following explains how fault is formed?
lord [1]

Answer:

a. Earthquakes shake the rocks to slide horizontally, vertically, or side-ward.

Explanation:

The correct answer is - a.Earthquakes shake the rocks to slide horizontally, vertically, or side-ward.

Reason -

A fault is a fracture or zone of fractures between two blocks of rock.

Faults allow the blocks to move relative to each other. This movement may occur rapidly, in the form of an earthquake - or may occur slowly, in the form of creep.

During an earthquake, the rock on one side of the fault suddenly slips with respect to the other.

The fault surface can be horizontal or vertical or some arbitrary angle in between.

quizlet chromosomes are composed of: please choose the correct answer from the following choices, and then select the submit ans
Anna11 [10]

Chromosomes are composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mole

There are mainly two molecules that function as genetic material in living organisms.

These are ribonucleic acid(RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA).

The organisms having DNA as genetic material require packaging of DNA as it is a long polymer of deoxyribonucleotides.

In the case of human beings, the length of DNA in a cell is approximately 2.2 meters which is very large as compared to the size of the nucleus( approximately 10^-6 meters).

So, the DNA has to be made compact for it to be present inside the nucleus of a cell.

Therefore, the DNA present inside the nucleus of a cell undergoes coiling and compaction through several stages before finally becoming a chromosome, which is shown in the adjoining diagram.

Thus, chromosomes are composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules.

To know more about "DNA Packaging", refer to the following link:

How do plasmodesmata affect the individuality of the cells?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

{\fcolorbox{blue}{black}{\blue{answer}}}

Plasmodesmata play roles in both cellular communication and in molecule translocation. Plant cells must work together as part of a multicellular organism (the plant); in other words, the individual cells must work to benefit the common good. Therefore, communication between cells is crucial for plant survival.
