There are mountain ranges in the middle of the ocean floor. Because of the higher elevation gravity pushes down on the edges of the plates. This is called ridge push.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Ridge push is a simple explanation of the height of the landforms based on the gravity and the elasticity of the underlying rock. It says when a landform gets too much higher, the weight of the overlying rock and soil pushes the landform back to plains. Thereby an equilibrium is maintained.
Slab pull is a theory proposed which visualizes the earth interior as a pool of hot molten lava that has a convection current going on. It explains why the crust of the earth continuously moves slowly and forms mountains and other rift valleys.
ANSWER:
(A) project be stopped to protect the ivory-billed woodpecker and all the other species of plants and animals.
EXPLANATION:
Option A (project be stopped to protect the ivory-billed woodpecker and all the other species of plants and animals) is most appropriate for a biocentric species egalitarian, because it provides equal rights and support for all forms of life without being baised on favoring sentient animals (animals who can feel and can be emotional).
NOTE: Species egalitarianism is the philosophic view that all living things have the same moral right and support and all forms of life have intrinsic value.

The purple color of potassium permanganate gradually spreads throughout the water in the jar by the process of diffusion.
- Diffusion is the process of movement of a substance from the region of higher concentration to the regions of lower concentration. Diffusion occurs in liquids as well as gases.
- Potassium permanganate is a purple color compound, when it is added in a jar of water it spreads throughout the water by the virtue of diffusion.
- The concentration of potassium permanganate is higher at one point and the other regions in the jar have its nil or low concentrations initially, this leads to the set up of a concentration gradient.
- As time passes diffusion occurs and the particles of potassium permanganate keep on migrating to the regions of low concentration until the concentration is uniform throughout the jar. Ultimately, it spread throughout the jar making the water purple.

Answer:
It is true that one-toed horse of today steadily evolved from its five-toed ancestor.
Explanation:
- Evolution is the law of nature.There is a continuous process of evolution in each biological species in nature.
- Similarly, horses had 5 toes millions of year back, but according to the theory of gradualism their use decreased and toes started fusing.
- Now, its only one toe at present but the vestigial left over provides the solid evidence for the fact that horses had 5 toes in the past.
