Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Coal is a non-renewable resource.

Answer 2

Answer:

B is the answer

Explanation:

Hydropower uses a fuel—water—that is not reduced or used up in the process. Because the water cycle is an endless, constantly recharging system, hydropower is considered a renewable energy.

Solar energy is a renewable free source of energy that is sustainable and totally inexhaustible, unlike fossil fuels that are finite. It is also a non-polluting source of energy and it does not emit any greenhouse gases when producing electricity.

Wind is a renewable energy source. Overall, using wind to produce energy has fewer effects on the environment than many other energy sources. Wind turbines do not release emissions that can pollute the air or water (with rare exceptions), and they do not require water for cooling.

Ice Sheet - Shrinking in a glacier

Moraine - Rock piles left by glaciers

Countour Planting -  One way to prevent soil erosion

Retreating - Continent Sized

Explanation:

Ice Sheet: Shrinking of ice sheets in a glacier is a result of the burning of fossil fuels that building up greenhouse gases in the environment and leading to global warming. When ice exposes to heat, it shrinks and melts.

Moraine: A moraine is defined as the debris or piles of rock left behind by a moving glacier.

Countour Planting: Contour farming or planting is a farming technique in which plants are grown in row patterns across a slope following its elevation contour lines. It prevents soil erosion by capturing at least twice the rainwater.

Retreating: Retreating is the process in which either ice melts or erode. Continent size can be affected by the retreating ability of glaciers.

Hence, the correct answer is:

Ice Sheet - Shrinking in a glacier

Moraine - Rock piles left by glaciers

Countour Planting -  One way to prevent soil erosion

Retreating - Continent Sized

Answer:

Contour Planting-One way to prevent soil erosion.

Retreating-Shrinking in a glacier.

Moraine-Rock piles left by glaciers.

Ice Sheet- Continent sized.

Washington State is divided by a mountain range called the Cascades. On the west side of the mountains, the weather is fairly cool and rainy for most of the year. On the east side of the mountain, the weather is much drier which factor is most likely responsible for the difference in climate between the two sides of the mountain in Washington
A. The gulf Stream, a warm current in the Atlantic Ocean
B. Westerlies global winds that blow west to east
C. A high-pressure belt at around 30ºN latitude
C. A low-pressure belt at around 60ºN latitude

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Through the process of elimination, It's not A because Washington State does not border the Atlantic, and Washington state is not on the 30 or 60 Latitude lines.

Westerlies, global winds that blow west to east, are most likely responsible for the difference in climate between the two regions of the mountain in Washington.

What is Westerlies?

The westerlies are predominant winds that flow from west to east around 30 and 60 degrees latitude and are also referred as anti-trades or predominant westerlies.

They form in high-pressure areas near the poles, travel towards the poles, and direct extratropical cyclones in that direction.

Thus, option B is correct.

They found evidence that climate has not changed significantly.
They grouped organisms by the period in which they existed.
They discovered that the first humans lived with dinosaurs.
They learned that life has existed since Earth was created.

Answers

The correct answer is They grouped organisms by the period in which they existed.

Explanation:

The job of a paleontologist is to understand the history of life on our planet by analyzing evidence such as fossils. This work has allowed paleontologists to understand the evolution of life on Earth from simple organisms such as bacteria to complex organisms such as mammals.

Moreover, this has been possible because, through different analyses, paleontologists can group the organisms they find by the periods in which they existed and this makes possible understand better the history of life including the approximate time first organisms existed, how these changed over time and how these led to the organisms that exist today.

Answers

Answer:

First, it was thought that it was the result of a meteor impact, but today it´s believed to have been caused by a process of geological uplift and later erosion from wind and water.

Explanation: becuase i watch the video  

An oasis is a geographical feature typically found in arid or desert regions.

It is a fertile area in an otherwise barren landscape, characterized by the presence of water, usually in the form of a natural spring or well. Oases can support the growth of vegetation, making them important havens for wildlife and human settlement in dry regions.

The Richat Structure, also known as the "Eye of the Sahara," is a prominent circular geological formation located in the Sahara Desert in Mauritania. When viewed from space by the first astronauts, scientists initially believed that it was an impact crater formed by a meteorite impact.

Ports in the Arctic Ocean can be used year-round to ship goods from Siberia to western Russia.

T or F.

Answers

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The Northern Sea Route, Sevigny Morskoy put, shortened to Севморпуть, Sevmorput) is a shipping route officially defined by Russian legislation as lying east of Novaya Zemlya and specifically running along the Russian Arctic coast from the Kara Sea, along Siberia, to the Bering Strait. The entire route lies in Arctic waters and within Russia's exclusive economic zone (EEZ). Parts are free of ice for only two months per year. The overall route on Russia's side of the Arctic between North Cape and the Bering Strait has been called the Northeast Passage, analogous to the Northwest Passage on the Canada side.

While the Northeast Passage includes all the East Arctic seas and connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the Northern Sea Route does not include the Barents Sea, and it therefore does not reach the Atlantic.

Melting Arctic ice caps are likely to increase traffic in and the commercial viability of the Northern Sea Route. One study, for instance, projects "remarkable shifts in trade flows between Asia and Europe, diversion of trade within Europe, heavy shipping traffic in the Arctic and a substantial drop in Suez traffic. Projected shifts in trade also imply substantial pressure on an already threatened Arctic ecosystem.

The Dead Sea, which lies between Jordan and Israel, is one of the saltiest lakes on Earth. Suppose you are a geologist exploring the area. What geological factors would you expect to see that might explain this salinity

Answers

Answer:

- Lack of outlets for water to escape and relatively impermeable soil at the bottom of the lake.

Explanation:

Salinity is characterized as the 'quality of being salty or containing salt in a solution.' The geological factors that might assist in elaborating the salinity of The Dead Sea would include 'the absence of outlets allowing water to escape and comparatively resistant soil at the core of the lake.' It will help in explaining the high concentration of salt at the bottom of the sea which makes it one of the saltiest water bodies across the globe.  

Due to the lack of water holding capacity of the soil and high temperature the region has a higher salinity. The higher rate of evaporation and dryness of the region makes the sea saline.

Unable to allow water to escape nd having no outlet is one of the major reason for salinity.

What type of erosion is the most important in the upper course of a river?

Answers

Answer:

Vertical or fluvial erosion

Explanation:

Fluvial or river erosion is a geomorphological process of constructed forms in the relief of the river flow.

Flowing over the topographic surface in the direction of the greatest fall, and under the influence of the earth's gravity, river flows create their own forms of relief. These are fluvial forms.

Fluvial forms can be: erosive, if they are created by cutting the river flow, accumulative if they are built by accumulating eroded fluvial material in places where the erosive and transport power of river water is weak.
