Lunar maria (plural form of the Latin word mare, which means sea) are dark surfaces that can be found all over the moon (17% of the Moon is covered in them) that have been created as a result of volcanic eruptions. These areas are made up of basalt, and given that they seemed almost waterlike, the astronomers in the distant past mistook them for seas, whence their name comes.

When it comes to craters, their origin is quite similar - volcanic eruptions created them. When lava starts erupting from a volcano, it has to get out from somewhere - and thus craters are created. If you are referring to lunar craters, however, there are many speculations as to how they were created: due to volcanic eruptions, meteoric impact, or glacier activity.

Answer from: tiiia

Craters formed when rocks from space collided with the moon.

Maria formed when lava flowed out of the moon, filled large craters, and then cool we'd d to solid rock.

an organism's phenotype is the form of a trait that it displays. for flowercolor, a pea plant can display a phenotype of purple or white flowers. an organism's genotype is the alleles of a gene it contains. based on his data, mendel concluded that a phenotype can be determined by more than one genotype.

Answer from: Quest

ans.

gregor john mendel is known for study of inheritance in pea plants. he used garden pea plant for his study, having alternative traits for various characters. he performed cross-breeding in pea plants to check how characters are transmitted between parents to offspring, such as cross between pure tall and pure dwarf plant. mendel studied the inheritance patterns in pea plants for various generations.

thus, the correct answer includes options and f).
