Answer:

When tectonic plates collide can form mountain ranges or large mountains, for example, the Himalayas is formed from the collision of two plates.

On the other hand when there is subduction (an oceanic plate sinks under the continental plate) mountainous systems are also formed, the lower plate melts and generates volcanic eruptions such as those that form some of the Andes mountains in South America.

Finally, deep depressions such as the Great Rift Valley are formed on land where plates are separated.

What evidence would you expect to find on the moon if it had beensubjected to plate tectonics? do you find such evidenc?
forsale [732]
Hey there!

When we have plate tectonics on our planet, we are subject to some unique phenomena, like:

A Mid-Ocean Ridge
Seafloor spreading
Earthquakes
Volcanos
Mountain Ranges

If the Moon were to have plates, we’d probably see geographic landforms like these, and it’s safe to say the Moon probably only has craters and elevations is because it’s uneven and probably was created from breaking off the Earth or another object. It would also have to have earthquakes and ground movement, and it doesn’t have this- at least that’s as much as we know.

Hope this helps!

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Pharmacokinetics is the analysis of how the body copes with absorption,  distribution, metabolism & excretion of drugs under examination.

The four process of pharmacokinetics are absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination.

Explanation:

Pharmacokinetics is the analysis of how the body copes with absorption,  distribution, metabolism & excretion of drugs under examination. The impacts and length of the drug's action are also considered.

The four process of pharmacokinetics are absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination.

1) Absorption - Absorption is the motion of a drug into the blood from its administration site. Many drugs are absorbed through passive absorption, but certain drugs require transportation mediated by the carrier.

2) Distribution -  Distribution is the body wide motion of drugs

3) Metabolism -  It is the method of transforming a drug throughout the body and make it much more hydrophilic in order for the kidneys to secrete it from the body.

4) Elimination - Excretion is the elimination from the body of the substance. Several drugs are either excreted unchanged or emit as urine or some other form.
