Which statement best describes the action that is creating the rift valley in africa?

the african plate is splitting apart to form two separate plates.

the eurasian plate is converging with the african plate.

the african plate is colliding with the arabian plate.

the eurasian and arabian plates are diverging.

The correct answer is the African plate is splitting apart to form two separate plates.

The eastern part of the plate is splitting and moving east, away from Mainland Africa. Every day the distance increases and is filled with water and sea life slowly eroding away at the surface as it slowly loses grip to Mainland Africa.

hello there are no statements below!

cells use diffusion to get substances in and out of themselves. that diffusion will occur across the cell membrane or the outer covering of the cell. because we are talking about the surface of the cell, surface area and volume are  important factors here. as a cell increases in size, its surface area and volume increase as well.  we call that the surface area to volume ratio (sa: vol).  but the catch is that  volume increases at a greater rate than surface  area. in other words, as a cell gets bigger, the sa: vol gets smaller. so a really small cell like bacteria is mostly cell membrane (surface) with very little contents (volume). a really big cell like an egg, is mostly insides with a super thin membrane. so what ends up happening is that the cell cannot efficiently diffuse all of the stuff it needs in/out to survive. therefore cell size is limited to about 100mm. so how do we make organisms bigger than 100mm? cells divide! by dividing and becoming multicellular, organisms are able to grow!   check out the diagrams i attached to see the effect of sa: vol. i hope this ! good luck!
