How does the movement of the crust along a thrust fault differ from that along a normal fault?
The movement of the crust along a thrust fault is usually a reverse movement unlike the movement along a normal fault.
Seismic waves are generated by movement along?
Seismic waves are generated by movement along faults. See the related question for more information.
What are breaks along which movement has occurred?
fault
What muscle transmits impulses along cytoplasmic extensions?
nervous tissue
Is a seismic wave caused by energy released as the result of rock movement along a fault?
Yes, seismic waves are the result of energy released by the movement of rocks along faults.
What type of tissue works to move food along the digestive tract?
Peristalsisis a radially symmetrical contraction and relaxation of muscles which propagates in a wave down the muscular tube, in an anterograde fashion. In humans, peristalsis is found in the contraction of smooth muscles to propel contents through the digestive tract. Earthworms use a similar mechanism to drive their locomotion.[1] The word is derived from New Latin and comes from the Greek peristallein, "to wrap around," from peri-, "around" +stallein, "to place".
In digestion what is the function of the eosophagus?
The esophagus is the muscular tube connecting your mouth to your stomach. The muscles are a special type, smooth muscle tissue which contracts and relaxs without conscious thought. The movement is controlled by nerve tissues ad the contractions move the food along.

What is the role of the protein actin?
Actin is found in muscle tissue ( along with myosin) and makes up microfilaments which are responsible for cellular movement and also function in cell division.
Movement along a demand curve?
explain graphically the movement along the demand curve
Where does mechanical digestion and chemical digestion occur along the digestive tract?
Mechanical Digestion happens in the mouth where your food is physically broken down. Chemical digestion happens in your intestines, where enzymes break down and absorb nutirients
Movement along the supply curve?
Movement along the Supply Curve is an indication of a change in Quantity Supplied.
What does the churning action of the stomach wall accomplish?
The churning action of the stomach wall accomplishes mechanical digestion. Mechanical digestion begins in the mouth and along with chemical digestion, ends in the small intestine.
How does the intestines contribute to the digestion?
The large intestine, no digestion takes place there. The large intestine passes along the waste product and it exits through the anus.
What is the name given to the movement of the food along the oesophagus?
Peristalsis is the name given to the rhythmic movement of food along the oesophagus.
What will change in market price cause movement along?
Change in market price will cause movement along the demand curve.
