Biology

Answer:

because California is located on the San Andreas Fault

Explanation:

California is one of the states that have higher seismic activity because it lies on an individual fault known as the San Andreas Fault. Faults are regions where two tectonic plates are moving with respect to one another, thereby they are prone to suffer earthquakes. The San Andreas Fault is a continental fault that extends approximately 800 miles (1,200 kilometers) through the US state. Conversely, earthquakes in North Dakota are uncommon because this state is located in the middle of a tectonic plate. The last earthquake in North Dakota had a magnitude of 3.3 (Richter Scale) and it happened almost 10 years ago (2012), in Williston.

QUE SON LA BIOMOLECULAS​
DIA [1.3K]

Son consideradas biomoléculas aquellas moléculas que forman parte de los organismos vivos.  

Las moléculas son las unidades físicas de la materia, que se forman a partir de la unión de dos o más átomos agrupados a través de enlaces químicos.

Las biomoléculas se clasifican en inorgánicas u orgánicas.

• Las biomoléculas inorgánicas se encuentran ampliamente en la atmósfera. El agua, algunas sales como el cloruro de sodio, y gases como el oxígeno, son ejemplos de biomoléculas inorgánicas.  

• A las moléculas como azúcares, proteínas, combustibles, entre otras, las cuáles contienen átomos de carbono, hidrógeno, oxígeno y a veces nitrógeno se les llama moléculas orgánicas.

Cuando las moléculas orgánicas forman parte de la materia viva, se les conoce como biomoléculas orgánicas, las cuales incluyen fundamentalmente glúcidos, lípidos, proteínas y ácidos nucleicos.

Por lo tanto, podemos concluir que las moléculas (compuestos que se forman a partir de los elementos químicos) que se encuentran formando los seres vivos se conocen como biomoléculas y se clasifican en inorgánicas u orgánicas.
