Select the Ocean Basemap (Esri) from the Basemap drop-down menu at the top right. Also select the Regional Bathymetric Contours

from the Options drop-down menu. Locate the divergent boundary that runs between the continents of South America and Africa. This boundary is known as the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
Explore this boundary in the location where the two continents are closest, and zoom in until you can easily read the contour lines on the topographic map. Note that the numbers on the contour lines represent the depth of the ocean floor and are always positive. For example, 7,000 meters is deeper than 3,000 meters. Place your cursor or mouse in various locations along the plate boundary, and read the elevation in the map key at the bottom left. The elevation numbers can be negative, unlike the contour lines, so they will become more negative as the sea floor becomes deeper.

Gather information along this boundary and describe how the divergent motion of theses tectonic plates has shaped Earth’s features along this boundary. Provide evidence to support your answer.

Answer:

The land that is closer around the boundary is higher in the ocean than the ocean floor that further away from it. I can prove this because the numbers that are around or on the boundary is 3000, while the ones further out are 5000. The divergent motion of these tectonic plates has shaped Earth's features because when the boundaries move together, the land goes up.

Offspring grow up to exhibit many of the same characteristics as their parents because of the _______ they receive from their pa
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Genes

Explanation:

A gene is a hereditary unit that parents pass to their offspring, and they will determine the kind of characteristics the baby will have like will they be short or tall, have blue or brown eyes, will they have blond or black hair.  The offspring will get different genes from its parents and it will therefore be genetically unique.  Some traits or characteristics may be dominant over others. For example the mother has brown eyes and the father has blue eyes, so in this case eye color has two alleles (an allele is a specific version of a gene, in this case allele for blue eye color and an allele for brown eye color), and now the baby is born with brown eyes, so brown eye color was dominant over the blue eye color so that is the trait that we will see in the baby.  The genetic is a lot more complex but this is a more simplified explanation of how offspring express certain traits from their parents.

How many of the devices that identified inside the control room need electricity to operate
wolverine [178]

All of the devices that identified inside the control room need electricity to operate.

Mostly control rooms (also known as operations center, or operations control center (OCC)) are for only authorized persons and general public are not allowed to enter there. Many electronic displays, control panels and other electronic devices are there in the control room.

During an investigation, Sam observes the number of hummingbirds that come to his large bird feeder at different times of day. H
mina [271]
The answer is <span>Time is the independent variable, and the number of birds is the dependent variable. </span>

<span>An independent variable is variable that is not affected in the experiment. It is what experimenter controls. On the other side, a dependent variable is called dependent because it depends on the independent variables. It is what is affected during the experiment.
In Sam investigation, he controls time - he counts birds at 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. So, time is the independent variable. The number of birds is affected during the experiment, so it must be the dependent variable.
