Answer:
The answer is E.) Lithosphere, Asthenosphere.
Explanation:
Tectonic plates belong to the layer called Lithosphere. The tectonic plates float on the Asthenosphere which is below the Lithosphere and more fluid than the crust.
From the Earth's surface to the its center we can say that the inside of the Earth is divided into four layers which, starting from the top , are:
i) the crust
ii) the mantle, (Lithosphere, Asthenosphere , Mesosphere)
iii) the outer core
iv) the inner core.
The tectonic plates are part of the Lithosphere and are constantly moving even though the crust is fairly solid. This is because the inner layers
( Asthenosphere , Mesosphere) are much are fluid and are constantly moving which tends to move the tectonic plates. When the tectonic plates collide they do so with tremendous force which leads to earthquakes and sometimes tsunamis as well resulting in a loss of life and property.
Answer:
A model in which oak has a positive transition rate to the invasive and the invasive has a positive transition to oak.
Explanation:
An invasive species is the one which is non-native to the given ecosystem. Its growth hampers balanced ecological parameters and disturbs food web as well as normal flora.The overall effect of invasive species is decreasing biodiversity in selected ecosystem. As the ecologist needs to understand effect of this invasive species, firstly it is important to understand the transition of oak tress to invasive form. The transition rate is one of the deciding factor to introduce diversity in ecosystem. Also if the invasive form has the ability to revert back to original oak tress it would restore the original ecosystem. Thus a model in which oak has a positive transition rate to invasive and the invasive has a position transition to oak can be selected for the analysis. In other models, the final trnasition to grass would introduce lot of biodiversity in selected ecosystem which would be of little importance to understand transition rate.
Answer:
Two-element compounds are usually ionic when one element is a metal and the other is a non-metal.
Explanation:
sodium chloride: NaCl, with Na+ and Cl- ions
lithium nitride: Li3N, with Li+ and N3- ions
magnesium oxide: MgO, with Mg2+ and O2- ions
calcium phosphide: Ca3P2, with Ca2+ and P3- ions
The research method is called SECONDARY ANALYSIS.
Secondary analysis involves using the data that other researchers have made available or that which the government has made available to conduct research. This method id usually used because gathering such data originally is usually impracticable.
They all look right to me sorry if you get any wrong...
