Answer:
In the 1960s, scientists found evidence that new material is indeed erupting along mid-ocean ridges. The scientists dived to the ocean floor in Alvin, a small submarine built to withstand the crushing pressures four kilometers down in the ocean. In a ridge’s central valley, Alvin’s crew found strange rocks shaped like pillows or like toothpaste squeezed from a tube. Such rocks form only when molten material hardens quickly after erupting under water. These rocks showed that molten material has erupted again and again along the mid-ocean ridge.
When scientists studied patterns in the rocks of the ocean floor, they found more support for sea-floor spreading. You read earlier that Earth behaves like a giant magnet, with a north pole and a south pole. Surprisingly, Earth’s magnetic poles have reversed themselves many times during Earth’s history. The last reversal happened 780,000 years ago. If the magnetic poles suddenly reversed themselves today, you would find that your compass needle points south.
Explanation:
I found this somewhere.
A) a spurt in the number of jellyfish because there will be a decreased number of turtles to feed on them
Answer:
Natural selection
Explanation:
Sexual selection refers to the natural selection where the allele frequencies of a population are changed due to nonrandom mating between the individuals. Certain preferences for the mate by organisms result in sexual selection. It is mostly exhibited by females.
For example, peahen prefers the peacocks with elaborate tail features as their mate. The sexual selection also occurs when there is competition among the members of the same sex for a mate. This type of sexual selection is mostly exhibited by males and results in fighting and display.
Quickly... this is a harder one, because all of possible answers are the result of interactions over a long time. However, these change the surface of the earth the fastest
1.) Volcanoes
2.) Flooding
Over a long time
1.) Through the rock cycle... earthquakes, mountain forming, etc.
2.) Melting, or forming of ice... changes sea levels
