What Is the mechanism responsible for producing the new seafloor between two diverging plates?
Sea Floor spreading
Distinguish between converging and diverging tectonic plates in a table form?
The Earth's crust is broken up into several lithospheric or tectonic plates. These plates are constantly moving atop the Earth's mantle (semi-solid layer of molten rocks). Based upon their motion, tectonic plates are referred to as converging or diverging. Converging tectonic plates move towards each other and form convergent boundary. Diverging tectonic plates move away from each other and form divergent boundary.
The term reproductive isolation mechanism refers to?
a blockage of gene flow between populations
Where is Mississippi's chief cotton producing area?
Between Mississippi and Yazoo River
What is interspecific and intraspecific cooperation?
Interspecific cooperation refers to help or assistance of individuals belonging to different species (a case of this is mutualism), whereas intraspecific cooperation is observed between individuals within the same species
What Is the mechanism responsible for producing the new seafloor between two diverging plates?
Sea Floor spreading
What is the difference between converging lens and diverging lens?
converging lens show virtual and real images while diverging shows virtual images.
What is different between converging and diverging lenses used in microscopes?
because they are
What is difference between process and mechanism?
process is process and mechanism is mechanism.
What is the mechanism of reaction between Wagner's reagent and alkaloids?
what is the reaction mechanism between wagner's reagent and alkaloids
What is definition of a DELTA?
a nearly flat plain of alluvial deposit between diverging branches of the mouth of a river
What is the difference between a diverging circuit and a converging circuit?
A diverging circuit is one neuron sending impulses to multiple post-synaptic neurons. A converging circuit is many neurons converging on one post-synaptic membrane.
Which mechanism involves the drawing of actin microfilaments between myosin microfilaments?
The ratchet mechanism
What is the difference between converging and diverging beam of light?
diverging beam of light means the rays which are spreading more away from each other on drawing further but the converging beam of light come closer to each other on drawing further.
Early in this century what was the prevailing view of how land animals migrated across vast expenses of ocean?
Opponents of continental drift claimed that due to transoceanic land bridges animals were able to make their way across the oceans. Seafloor spreading is the process of producing a new seafloor between two diverging planes.
What are the differences between convergence and divergence plates?
Converging plates come together. They converge together. Diverging plates come apart.
What is the difference between convergent divergent nozzle and venturi tube?
In case of venturi meter, at the diverging section mach number is less than 1. however in diverging section of a nozzle mach number is greater than 1.
