<span>By the late 1960s, scientists had developed the theory of plate tectonics based on a range of new evidence. Technological advances had helped reveal that the ocean floor was not essentially flat, as once assumed, but instead was marked by 50,000-kilometer-long (31,000-mile), 3,000-meter-high (9,800-ft) ridges and 11-kilometer-deep (7-mile) trenches. Scientists found striking patterns related to these features. They found that the youngest oceanic crust is located nearest the mid-ocean ridge and the oldest crust is nearest the trenches. They also detected a pattern of alternating magnetic polarity along the ocean floor, which emanated from the ridge tops. These two pieces of evidence, coupled with the fact that volcanic activity and island-building occurred most commonly at ocean trenches, suggested that new crust was created at mid-ocean ridges and destroyed at ocean trenches. Scientists Harry Hess and Robert Dietz used this evidence to revive and expand Holmes' convection theory into the theory they called "seafloor spreading." Finally, Wegener's notion of continental drift was coupled with a mechanism that could explain the movement of tectonic plates.</span>

Answer:Sclerenchyma
Explanation:Sclerenchyma is thick walled dead lignified cells, they are hard and elastic. The sclerenchyma cells are divided into two groups namely fibers and sclereids. Sclerenchymatous fibers are branched/unbranched, long, hard, pointed cells with tapering ends, thick walls, and narrow lumen.
<span>Nerve cells send electrical impulses along the axon. When these impulses reach the end of the neuron, they cause a release of neurotransmitters across the synapse.
</span>The axon is part of the neuron (nerve cell that carries messages), as well as dendrite. Axons pass the nerve impulses on to other cells, while dendrite <span>receive nerve impulses from other cells. </span><span>The place where the axon of one neuron meets the </span>dendrite<span> of another is called a </span>synapse.
Answer:
The first male was bb Ee, and the second male was bb EE.
Explanation:
In Labradors coat colour is controlled by two genes. Suppose the two genes are B and E. B produces black colour and recessive form bb gives brown colour. Gene E is epistatic over gene B in its recessive form which means that ee will produce yellow colour regardless of the genotype present of B gene.
The first case is possible if the female lab is bbee (yellow) and the male lab is bbEe (brown):
bbee X bbEe
bE be
be bbEe bbee
So half of the offspring will be brown (bbEe) and half of them will be yellow (bbee)
The second case is possible if the same female bbee mates with a brown male of different genotype which can be bbEE:
bbee X bbEE
bE
be bbEe
So all offspring will be brown (bbEe)
Hence, the first male was bbEe and the second male was bbEE.
