The correct answer is A - Lithosphere

Explanation: John Tuzo Wilson was a Canadian geophysicist who is known for his contributions to the theory of plate tectonics.

Plate tectonics supports the idea that the rigid outer layer of the Earth or the lithosphere is broken into numerous plates. These plates move independently over the asthenosphere.

Which term best describes the difference in colors of the birds below?

NeX [460]

Answer:

<u><em>The correct option is C) genetic variation</em></u>

Explanation:

Genetic variation can be described as the differences present in the genetic material i.e DNA of organisms present in a population. Genetic diversity allows organisms of a species to better adapt to an environment. A population in which the genetic variability is scarce might become wiped out by a disease or an invading predator.

As the birds show different variations hence the term that best described them is genetic variation.

Earth’s axis is tilted to one side. Which phenomenon would cease to exist in the absence of this axial tilt?

Snowcat [4.5K]

The earth's tilt of 23.5 degrees to it's axis as it revolves around the sun causes seasons; summer, spring, winter and autumn. This is due to the orientation of the earth with respect to the sun that cause variations in how to sun rays 'strike' the earth. Consequently, there are variations in temperatures across the earth, over its complete revolution, causing seasons my brotha, Hope this helps!

As the salamander’s wound heals, it’s body cells are dividing to repair the damage. How is this type of cell division similar to

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Wound healing is a process to regenerate cells at the site of an injury or infection. Asexual reproduction is a process in which daughter cells are produced from a single cell or organism.

The wound healing process is similar to asexual reproduction because both the processes use mitosis for cell division. As a result of mitosis, two daughter cells are produced which are identical to the parent cells. Hence, during wound healing and asexual reproduction, the same cells as the parent cells are produced.

What is the work generated by a healthy adult who circulates 9 l of blood through the brachial artery in 10 min 2 kj?

Pani-rosa [81]

You have also the total power generated is 200W

To figure out the kind of exercises, you need to master the definition of each unit. for example
power: watt (W) is joule/sec
Work: is Newton. meter = Joule

To obtain the work done by the adult, we have to convert the power (watt) into a work by multiplying by the time ( $\frac{Joule}{seconds}$ * seconds = Joule)
10 minutes is 60 * 10 = 600 seconds

200Watt * 600 second = 120000 joules = 120 Kj

So the work is 120Kj
