Four friends were arguing about the time scales for geoscience prosses related to plate tectonics. They each had different ideas

about how long it takes for the motion of earth's tectonic plate to produce changes on earth's surface. This is what they said:
Natia: The movement of Earth's plates forms landforms over million of years.

Zeke: The movement of Earth's pates causes rapid events that can occur within seconds.

Akoni: The movement of Earth's plate only moves continents across Earth's surface

Jan: The movement of Earth's plates only moves continents across Earth's surface.

Which student do you agree with?

Natia
Zeke
Akoni
Jan

LIST AT LEAST THREE EXAMPLES OF HOW MICROBIAL PHOTOTROPHS ARE IMPORTANT CLINICALLY AND ENVIRONMENTALLY
zaharov [31]
Cyanobacteria are primitive organisms where chloroplasts are believed to be originated. These phototrophic organisms benefit the environmental and the clinical aspects because of their unique physiology. For instance, they contribute to energy attainment from sunlight which helps other organisms gain energy when this is consumed. Another is the contribution to biogeochemical cycles. And lastly, how these can aid in many medical discoveries and treatments.

Why does the enzyme trypsin get deactivated when introduced in the gastric juice of the stomach?
svetoff [14.1K]
In my Biology Honors Class, they taught about gastric juice, or also known as    (p H) which is formed by stomach glands, is very acidic and can seriously mess up enzyme trypsin functions. After all, enzymes are a type of catalyst that help break down food, which means that enzymes are a sort of digestive acid as well. Hope this helps!
