The age of oceanic bedrock on either side of a mid-ocean ridge is supporting evidence that at the ridges, tectonic plates are Diverging .

Explanation:

The underwater mountain range is the mid oceanic ridge, which were formed as a result of plate tectonics.  when the convection current goes up in the mantle present beneath the oceanic crust results in the uplifting of the ocean floor.

Which leads to the formation of the tectonic plates through magma, that meet at divergent boundaries. The density and the age and the thickness of these oceanic crust increases due to the distance from the ridges. The mid oceanic ridges has been split on two sides as matching stripes ,

Which statement explains why earthquakes tend to be deeper near subduction zones?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Option C, At a subduction zone, oceanic crust is forced deep into the Earth.

Explanation:

At sub-duction zone, the dense oceanic plates coincides with the less dense continental plates and thus sink below the continental plates. Sometimes these oceanic plates being dense, sink to greater depth with in the earth’s mantle. The sub-duction zone causes  earth quakes of high intensity when oceanic crust penetrates to greater depths of earth crust as they tend to change the rheology of the earths’ mantle and also causes bending of plates

Hence, option C is correct

------------is a life-threatening disease, characterized by high blood pressure that may afflict women late in the second or ear
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is- Preeclampsia

Explanation:

Preeclampsia is a complication during pregnancy which is characterized by high blood pressure in the pregnant woman and damage to internal organs like liver and kidney.

This complication starts normally after 20 weeks of the pregnancy. Before starting preeclampsia the pregnant woman's blood pressure is normal. Preeclampsia can lead to serious complications if it untreated and the delivery of the baby is the most effective treatment.  

Therefore preeclampsia is a life-threatening disease, characterized by high blood pressure in pregnant women.

Description:
Therapeutic Progesterone is a synthetic form of the endogenous hormone progesterone. Progesterone binds to the progesterone receptor, resulting in dissociation of heat shock proteins, receptor phosphorylation, and transcription activation through direct or indirect interaction with transcription factors. This agent exerts inhibitory effects on estrogens by decreasing the number of estrogen receptors and increasing its metabolism to inactive metabolites. Progesterone induces secretory changes in the endometrium, decreases uterine contractility during pregnancy, and maintains pregnancy. (NCI04)
from NCIt
Progesterone is a Progesterone. The chemical classification of progesterone is Progesterone.
from FDA Pharm Classes
Progesterone is a C21-steroid hormone in which a pregnane skeleton carries oxo substituents at positions 3 and 20 and is unsaturated at C(4)-C(5). As a hormone, it is involved in the female menstrual cycle, pregnancy and embryogenesis of humans and other species. It has a role as a contraceptive drug, a progestin, a progesterone receptor agonist, a human metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It is a 20-oxo steroid, a 3-oxo-Delta(4) steroid and a C21-steroid hormone. It derives from a hydride of a pregnane.
