Which word identifies the agent that carries the energy released from earthquakes?

epicenter
focus
lithosphere
waves

The correct answer is D. Waves

Explanation:

Earthquakes mainly occur as energy releases from the Earth Crust (lithosphere) due to movements in the tectonic plates or failures in them. This creates sudden energy that is released as seismic waves that cross different layers on the Earth and therefore are the ones that cause movements in the soil. Due to this, by analyzing the seismic waves it is possible to determine the intensity fo the earthquake based on the energy released by the waves. According to this, the agent that carries energy released from earthquakes is waves.

the three components of a nucleotide are the nitrogenous base, the phosphate group and the five-carbon sugar.

it has to be understood that the sea water contains a huge amount of sodium and chlorine ions and if they enter the cell of the atlantic cod fish, the cell will shrivel and the fish will die. to avoid such a condition, the fish uses active transport for the purpose of removing the ions against the gradient.

explanation:

the atlantic cod is not a maritime osmoconformer. its native application of salts is less than that of the seawater it lives in. it is continually falling water from the gills to the ocean via osmosis.

countering that, the fish is going to be swallowing seawater. but since its internal collection of salts is lower than seawater, the fish will want to go free of excess salt, and since that's going upon a gradient, then active transport, requiring energy, must be used to pump out the salt. much marine fish use the organs to filter out the salt and these fish discharge very straight urine.
