Answer:
Explanation:
A convergent boundary (also known as a destructive boundary) is an area on Earth where two or more lithospheric plates collide. One plate eventually slides beneath the other, a process known as subduction. The subduction zone can be defined by a plane where many earthquakes occur, called the Wadati–Benioff zone.[1] These collisions happen on scales of millions to tens of millions of years and can lead to volcanism, earthquakes, orogenesis, destruction of lithosphere, and deformation. Convergent boundaries occur between oceanic-oceanic lithosphere, oceanic-continental lithosphere, and continental-continental lithosphere. The geologic features related to convergent boundaries vary depending on crust types.
Plate tectonics is driven by convection cells in the mantle. Convection cells are the result of heat generated by radioactive decay of elements in the mantle escaping to the surface and the return of cool materials from the surface to the mantle.[2] These convection cells bring hot mantle material to the surface along spreading centers creating new crust. As this new crust is pushed away from the spreading center by the formation of newer crust, it cools, thins, and becomes denser. Subduction begins when this dense crust converges with less dense crust. The force of gravity helps drive the subducting slab into the mantle.[3] As the relatively cool subducting slab sinks deeper into the mantle, it is heated, causing hydrous minerals to break down. This releases water into the hotter asthenosphere, which leads to partial melting of asthenosphere and volcanism. Both dehydration and partial melting occurs along the 1,000 °C (1,830 °F) isotherm, generally at depths of 65 to 130 km (40 to 81 mi).[4][5]
Some lithospheric plates consist of both continental and oceanic lithosphere. In some instances, initial convergence with another plate will destroy oceanic lithosphere, leading to convergence of two continental plates. Neither continental plate will subduct. It is likely that the plate may break along the boundary of continental and oceanic crust. Seismic tomography reveals pieces of lithosphere that have broken off during convergence
Which process is part of transcription?
DNA is copied to create a second DNA strand.
mRNA codons and tRNA anticodons assemble amino acids.
DNA is unzipped with the aid of DNA polymerase.
mRNA is synthesized from a strand of DNA.
Answer:DNA is copied to create a second DNA strand.
Explanation:Transcription is the process in which a gene's DNA sequence is copied (transcribed) to make an RNA molecule. ... RNA polymerase uses one of the DNA strands (the template strand) as a template to make a new, complementary RNA molecule. Transcription ends in a process called termination.

What does metabolically inert mean? "Sucrose is soluble but metabolically inert"
Viruses are metabolically inert and incapable of reproducing independently of a host cell (hence are non-living).
What is meant by metabolically inert?Viruses are metabolically inert and incapable of reproducing independently of a host cell (hence are non-living). They typically consist of an inner core of nucleic acid surrounded by a protein coat (capsid). Simpler viruses may lack a capsid (viroids), whilst more complex viruses may possess an external lipid envelope.Viruses are metabolically inert and incapable of reproducing independently of a host cell (hence are non-living).

Monkeys have a prehensile tail that allows them to grab and hold onto tree branches.
Answer:
structural adaptation
Explanation:
Adaptation is the way the organism is kept alive in changing life circumstances. Every organism in a dynamic relationship with the environment tends to survive.
Ecological factors determine the living conditions in one habitat. This means that all plants, animals, fungi, and even microorganisms adapt to the conditions
In this diagram below , which of the stomach tissues would be muscular tissues ?
- tissue 1 : forms the outer lining of the stomach
-tissue 2 : produces enzymes which are secreted into the stomach cavity
- tissue 3 : cells in this tissue contract to churn the contents of the stomach
In a numeric number
Tissue 1 which forms the outer lining of the stomach would be the muscular tissues.
What is Muscularis mucosa?
This is referred to as the outermost layer of the mucosa and comprises of elastic fibers and smooth muscle cells.
The muscular tissue is therefore tissue 1 as a result of its location and function in the body.

Why are cells so small?
Answer:
Why are cells small? because they can absorb nutrients much more efficiently. Because they are smaller they can efficiently absorb enough food. When a cell doubles in size the volume increases much more then the surface area, which is why large cells cannot receive enough food efficiently for their volume.
