5. when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent

6.They are moving toward each other

7. The Nazca Plate is bounded on the west by the Pacific Plate and to the south by the Antarctic Plate through the East Pacific Rise

8.Convection currents in the mantle drive plate tectonics. Convection is the reason for ocean currents. Ocean currents result from two processes - the action of wind on the surface of the water, and from variation in water temperature that causes movement.

Both the mantle and ocean experience the heat transfer due to bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids, including molten rock; this is called, again, convection.

The brown-eye allele is dominant over blue-eye allele. A couple currently has 3 children with brown eyes. What is the probabilit

MissTica

Answer:

The correct answer is: 25 %

Explanation:

According to Mandel's law of inheritance, the dominant allele masks the expression of the recessive allele if present together. If a couple has 3 children with brown eyes. In a monohybrid cross, the ideal phenotypic ratio of the offsprings is 3: 1 or in other words, the dominant character chances to appear is 75% in phenotype.

So, by the law of dominance of monohybrid cross the chances of the fourth child to develop blue eyes is 25%.

Thus, the correct answer is : 25 %.
