Answer:
Theory of Plate tectonics: states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere
Lithosphere: the rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle.
Convection currents: occur when a heated fluid expands, becoming less dense, and rises
Seafloor spreading: the formation of new areas of oceanic crust, which occurs through the upwelling of magma at mid-ocean ridges and its subsequent outward movement on either side.
Paleomagnetic: is the study of the record of the Earth's magnetic field in rocks, sediment, or archeological materials.
Divergent boundary: occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other.
Convergent boundary: is an area on Earth where two or more lithospheric plates collide.
Rift valley: A rift valley is a linear-shaped lowland between several highlands or mountain ranges created by the action of a geologic rift or fault.
Transform fault boundary: A transform fault or transform boundary is a fault along a plate boundary where the motion is predominantly horizontal.
Subduction zone: is a region of the Earth's crust where tectonic plates meet.
Trench: Trenches are long, narrow depressions on the seafloor that form at the boundary of tectonic plates where one plate is pushed, or subducts, beneath another.
Continental-oceanic convergence: When two plates come towards each other they create a convergent plate boundary. The plates can meet where both have oceanic crust or both have continental crust, or they can meet where one has oceanic and one has continental.
Continental-continental convergence: So when two continental plates collide, they just smash together. When two plates of continental crust collide, the material pushes upward. This forms a high mountain range. The remnants of subducted oceanic crust remain beneath the continental convergence zone.

a fifth grade friend has seen a picture of your "child" and asks you to explain how kids get their traits from their parents . using this activity as an illustration, write your explanation for this friend
Answer:
Genes are the basic unit of heredity. This means that genes determine what traits are passed down from a mother and father to their child. Eye color, height, and hair color are some examples of the traits that are controlled by genes. Genes exist inside the cells that make up living things.
Explanation:
Kids get their traits from their parents by getting an allele of each trait from each parent.
How are traits inherited?Each trait is represented by a gene and each gene is represented by two alleles.
The two alleles for each gene are donated by each of the two parents in a union.
For example, let us say the eye color gene is represented by the allele A (a).
One parent is AA while the other is aa.
A child will inherit eye color by getting one A allele from one parent and the other allele (a) from the other parent. Thus, the child will be Aa.

Which accurately describes solar weather? Choose the two correct answers.
A. The intensity of solar weather is constant and unchanging.
B. Solar flares and sunspots increase as solar minimum approaches.
C. Solar flares and sunspots increase as solar maximum approaches.
D. The intensity of solar weather changes frequently.
Answer:
C & D
Explanation:
C - The Sun has an 11 year solar cycle. When the solar cycle is at a minimum, active regions of the sun are rare and not many solar flares are detected. They dramatically increase as the Sun approaches the maximum part of its cycle.
D - It's the Sun. It's moody. Solar flares are pretty sporadic, they're sudden and often unpredictable.
Which type of blood cell is the first to arrive at a bacterial infection?
A. Neutrophil
B. Platelet
C. Macrophage
D. B cell
Answer: The most numerous of the granulocytes—making up 50 to 80 percent of all white cells—are neutrophils. They are often one of the first cell types to arrive at a site of infection, where they engulf and destroy the infectious microorganisms through a process called phagocytosis.
Explanation: the answer is A) Neutrophil

Horses have 64 chromosomes in each body cell. If a horse cell undergoes meiosis, how many chromosomes should be in each gamete?
If a horse cell undergoes meiosis, there will be 32 chromosomes in each gamete.
What is meiosis?
In sexually reproducing organisms, meiosis is a kind of cell division that results in a reduction in the number of chromosomes in gametes (the sex cells, or egg and sperm). Body (or somatic) cells in humans are diploid, meaning they have two sets of chromosomes (one from each parent). The egg and sperm that combine during fertilization must be haploid, or having only one pair of chromosomes, in order to sustain this state. Each diploid cell divides twice during meiosis to produce four haploid daughter cells, which are the gametes.Meiosis uses a two-step division mechanism to achieve these goals. During the initial round of cell division, known as meiosis I, homologue pairs split apart. Sister chromatids split apart during meiosis II, the second round.

An environment relies upon the organisms within it interacting with each other AND with their physical environment TRUE FALSE
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The environment provides each organism with everything it needs to live. All over Earth there are many different kinds of plants and animals that are specially suited to live in their environments. Plants and animals must react to these changes in order to survive. Organisms clearly owe their origin, metabolism, and many other internal functions to chemical phenomena, especially the chemistry of large organic molecules. Organisms are complex systems of chemical compounds that, through interaction and environment, play a wide variety of roles.
A virus is made up several components. What are the components?
Answer:
nucleic acid (single- or double-stranded RNA or DNA) and a protein coat, the capsid, which functions as a shell to protect the viral genome from nucleases and which during infection attaches the virion to specific receptors exposed on the prospective host cell.
Explanation:
Answer: .

➜ These are the reasons so Mendel choose pea plant for his experiment:
Easy to grow.Short lifespan.Easily Disinguishable characters.Larger size of flower.Self pollinated.Answer:
Geregor Mendel chose the pea plants for his experiments because the garden pea is an ideal subject in the study of genetics for the following reasons: presence of observable traits with contrasting forms produces many offspring in one cross.

Solve the problem 2x-y=16
4x-y =2
Answer:
Subtract 4x4x from both sides of the equation.
y=16−4xy=16-4x
2x+3y=−22x+3y=-2
Replace all occurrences of yy in 2x+3y=−22x+3y=-2 with 16−4x16-4x.
y=16−4xy=16-4x
2x+3(16−4x)=−22x+3(16-4x)=-2
Simplify 2x+3(16−4x)2x+3(16-4x).
Tap for more steps...

Why gene flow isn’t the cause of antibiotic resistance
Answer:
Antibiotic resistance continues to become worse, despite the ever-increasing resources devoted to combat the problem. One of the most important factors in the development of resistance to antibiotics is the remarkable ability of bacteria to share genetic resources via Lateral Gene Transfer (LGT).
LGT occurs on a global scale, such that in theory, any gene in any organism anywhere in the microbial biosphere might be mobilized and spread. With sufficiently strong selection, any gene may spread to a point where it establishes a global presence. From an antibiotic resistance perspective, this means that a resistance phenotype can appear in a diverse range of infections around the globe nearly simultaneously. We discuss the forces and agents that make this LGT possible and argue that the problem of resistance can ultimately only be managed by understanding the problem from a broad ecological and evolutionary perspective. We also argue that human activities are exacerbating the problem by increasing the tempo of LGT and bacterial evolution for many traits that are important to humans.
