3. It's because of the heat underneath the crust of the Earth. Because heat rises, the molten rock and such underneath the crust rises to the top and then the movement underneath causes things on top to move.
4. Plates are the different sections that the lithosphere has been cracked into. These plates once all fit together as a giant plate called Pangaea.
5. An earthquake is a sudden, sometimes violent shaking of the ground, as a result of the shifting of tectonic plates, or volcanic eruption.
6. On the magnitude scale, earthquakes range from 2.5 or less (usually never felt but strong enough to be detected by seismograph) to 8.0 or higher. Causes extreme damage; enough to destroy whole cities at once if close enough to the epicenter.
7. Depends on what kind you're looking for. I'd look it up for your specific topic.
8. To apply a forces to something, usually resulting in a stretch.
9. The action of compressing something, to flatten or squeeze by pressure
10. A strain on the layers of something because of pressure, resulting in the shifting of those layers.
11. In areas undergoing extension or stretching. It's when the crust is extended.
12. The hanging wall drops relative to the footwall.
13. This is what happens when the hanging wall <u>rises</u> relative to the footwall. (The opposite of a normal fault)
14.
Change one thing about the tests multiple times I'm guessing
The tree topology
The lengths of the branches
The branching order of the tree
Nucleotide substitution rate
These would not affect maximum likelihood estimates of phylogenies when comparing different tree hypotheses.
<h3>What is tree topology?</h3>
- A unique kind of structure called a tree topology has numerous connected parts arranged like the branches of a tree.
<h3>The lengths of the branches:</h3>
- Branch lengths are a sign of genetic divergence; the longer the branch, the more genetic divergence has taken place.
- Usually, we calculate the average number of nucleotide or protein substitutions per site to assess the degree of genetic alteration.
<h3>The branching order of the tree:</h3>
- The topology of a tree refers to its branching structure.
- Species (or higher taxa), populations, genes, and proteins are examples of taxonomic units that the nodes represent.
- A branch is referred to as an edge, and it represents an estimate of the length of time between the evolutionary relationships between taxonomic units.
<h3>What is nucleotide substitution rate?</h3>
- The instantaneous rate of change from each of the four nucleotides to each of the other four nucleotides is summarized in the nucleotide substitution rate matrix.

Answer:
increasing thirst when cells are low on water
Explanation:
The Savanna or Savannah
The Savanna is a biome that is typically found in Africa and is characterized by a tree density low enough to allow sunlight to reach the ground and allow for smaller plants such as grasses to grow. The growth of these grasses provides an optimal food source for herbivores, which is why large grazing herbivores such as zebras are found here. The presence of these herbivores allows for the existence of larger carnivores such as lions.
