How do skin cells replace itself after an injury? a) skin cells go through the process of budding to make new identical cells.
b) skin cells go through the procces of mitosis to make new identical cells.
c) skin cells go through the process og photosynthesis to make new identical cells.
d) skin cells go through the process of cellular respiration to make new identical cells.

b) skin cells go through the process of mitosis to make new identical cells.

Explanation:

The skin is the largest organ in the human body; it forms a protective barrier that keeps out external pathogens, and is integral to waste removal. When the organ is injured, damaged cells initiate an immune response, while healthy cells nearby begin to replicate.

This type of cell replication involves somatic cells and results in the diploid number of chromosomes called mitosis. Skin cells are somatic- they contain all 24 pairs of human chromosomes. During replication, the chromosomes are unwound, and copied- then, the newly copied chromosomes separate into two identical daughter cells with the same chromosome number.

b is dominant over the allele for the white fur.

c. earths continental crust is thicker than its lithosphere.

because, the lithosphere is the outermost layer of the earth/ 100 km thick and is defined by its machanical properties.the lithosphere contains oceanic and continental crust that varies in age and thickness across locations and geologic time. the lithosphere is the coolest layer of the earth in terms of temperature. the term lithosphere should not be confused with the use of "geosphere" which is used to indicate all of earth systems, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere   and biosphere. the surface of the earth can be divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.   the continental crust is made mostly of granite while the oceanic crust is made of basalt. the average thickness of the continental crust is 25 miles and the average thickness of the oceanic crust is 5 miles.   three types of rock, igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic, make up the surface of the earth. that's why 3 option is preferable.
