Answer:

A, B, E

Explanation:

The magma rising through the cracks makes new younger rocks close to the crack as the magma follows out and hardens. This means that rocks farther away from the crack are older because they where formed when they where right next to the crack. They are father away meaning they got pushed back as time went on.

Mid ocean ridges are a result of the spreading not the cause.

Because they are in the middle of the ocean and they are moving constantly i dought the mid ocean ridges are creating continents.

Answer:

Dissaster like meteorite impacted all type of living forms, however, animals are impacted the most and plants are impacted least. It is possible due to ability of plants to prepare their food on their own as they are autotrophic and use photosynthesis. The raw material for preparing these are easily available that are sunlight, CO2 and water.

They are not depende on other for their cellular respiration. The other major reason is that the Plant seeds can remain dormant in unfavorable conditions for many years in the soil. The roots always provide nutrition even the stems get effected.

Why we used dyes when we prepare onion , human cheek eqithelium smears, and didn’t use it in cork and leaf epidermal cells smear
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Staining is done for onion cells to visualize the cytoplasm of yellow and white onions because they are not pigmented. The staining of human cheek cells with methylene blue is necessary to stain the nucleus to get clear image of it under microscope because methylene blue binds to negative charge nucleic acids  

While for leaf epidermal cells smears, staining is not necessary as they are visible under light microscope without staining and they also have pigmented materials inside them such as chlorophyll chloroplast.  The cork cell is a non-living and have a cell wall whose structure is visible under light microscope.
