Which type of plate boundary is most closely associated with the formation of the new ocean floor? How does the Laramide orogeny differ from other orogenies at convergent plate boundaries. What evidence makes the theory of plate tectonics plausible?
The presence of offsets, appearing at intervals ranging from 10s to 100s of kilometres, is a distinct characteristic of constructive tectonic plate margins. By comparison, boundaries associated with subduction exhibit uninterrupted continuity. Here, we present global mantle convection calculations that res...
Generally, various secondary structure types have different tendencies to engage in stable hydrogen bonding, with loops being less hydrogen bonded than helices and sheets which are, by definition, stabilized by amide hydrogen bonding. In the Pab1 structure, the hydrophobic sheets tend to be the most...
