Marine terraces are landforms associated with:

a. An emergent coastline
b. A submergent coastline
c. A bay
d. An estuary
e. None of the above

Answers

Answer:

a. An emergent coastline

Explanation:

The marine terraces are landforms that are associated with emergent coastlines. These landforms can be formed in two ways, either by falling of the sea levels, or by isostatic rebound. Whichever way it is, it manages to get the landform further above and further away from the sea. The marine terraces have once been on level with the sea waters, which is why they have sharp slopes. As the sea level drops, or the land lifts up, or maybe both, the marine terrace emerges above the sea, having very steep slope from the side of the sea, but being relatively flat on top, giving rise to a beautiful and interesting geographical feature.

Where is the ice cream parlor with the largest number of flavors in the world?

Compare and contrast the earth and sun centered theories of the universe

Answers

The Earth centered theory about the universe (geocentric theory) is the oldest one recorded. This theory suggested that the Earth is the largest object in the universe. It is the center of the universe, and all of the other objects, like the Sun, Moon, planets, stars, are orbiting around it.

The Sun centered theory about the universe (heliocentric theory) has been developed in the late Middle Ages. This theory suggested that the Sun is actually the center of the universe, not the Earth. That the Sun is the largest object in the universe, and the Earth, Moon, planets, stars, were all orbiting around the Sun.

In reality both of these theories are wrong, with the heliocentric theory being closer to the reality, or rather to how our solar system works, not the universe. Neither the Earth nor the Sun are centers of the universe. They are both just small parts of a much larger picture, where the Sun is the center of the solar system, with the objects in the solar system orbiting around it, while the moons orbit both around the Sun and around their planets. The Sun though is part of a galaxy that has its own center, so the Sun together with all the other objects that orbit around it, orbit around the center of the galaxy.

What drives the movement of tectonic plates?

Answers

Answer:

Convection currents

Explanation:

The tectonic plates on Earth have been formed, and have been moving ever since their formation because of the convection currents. These currents are present in the mantle layer, which is the second layer from top to bottom. The radioactive decay of elements that are found deep inside the interior of the Earth manage to melt the rocks and metals, thus creating the magma. With its slow and constant movement, the convection currents manage to bring the heat and magma to the surface. As they have already broken the Earth's surface into multiple pieces, the magma is pushed up through the cracks, or occasionally forms new ones. That causes the creation of new crust, a crust that pushes the old crust aside, resulting in plate collision and subduction in other part of the surface, so the old crust gets into the mantle gradually and gets molten. This process is responsible for all the geological activity on the planet.

Carpathian Mountain Range

Explanation:

The Carpathian Mountain Range is a mountain range that stretches in part of Central and Eastern Europe, with the majority of it being in the territory of Slovakia, Ukraine, and Romania, and very small parts of it being in Czechia, Poland and Serbia. These mountains are covered with very old, dense temperate forests. Even though this range is one of the largest by area in Europe and with length of around 1,500 km, it is not one of the highest, with the highest elevation being 2,655 meters. These mountains are still not very affected by the human activity, and large portion of them remain untouched, and the fact that there's very little population on them helps a lot in their preservation. These mountains are famous for their beautiful nature, rich flora and fauna, numerous castles including the one of Dracula (Vlad the Impaler)

Which of the following accurately describes rill erosion? A. Fast-moving water from heavy rainfall forms deep channels. B. Runoff from heavy rainfall forms narrow, shallow channels. C. Runoff removes soil and loose sediment in thin layers. D. A raindrop hits the ground and displaces the surrounding soil

Answers

Answer:

B. Runoff from heavy rainfall forms narrow, shallow channels

Explanation:

The rill erosion occurs at places that are stripped of vegetation, or do not have it naturally. The area in which this erosion occurs also has to be at a certain angle, thus it has to be a slope. When a heavy rainfall occurs, it manages to create runoff. The runoff over-saturates parts of the soil, and starts moving it downwards. As it moves it downwards, narrow, shallow channels are being formed. The water runs through this streamlets, or headcuts, moving the soil down with it, thus causing an extensive erosion of the area.

Answer:B. Runoff from heavy rainfall forms narrow, shallow channels

Explanation:

Which of the following is not a function of wetlands? A. They serve as sources of drinking water. B. They recharge groundwater supplies. C. They assist with flood control. D. They provide natural water filtration.

Answers

D. They provide natural water filtration

While wetlands can be clean, the water isn't naturally filtered.

The correct  answer is option (A). They serve as sources of drinking water is not a function of wetlands.

Wetlands are critical for a variety of ecological functions, including recharging groundwater supplies (Option B), assisting with flood control (Option C), and providing natural water filtration (Option D).

These functions are well-documented and essential for maintaining water quality and quantity, as well as for supporting biodiversity and ecosystem health.

However, wetlands themselves are not typically considered direct sources of drinking water (Option A).

While they can contribute to the overall water supply and can improve water quality through filtration, wetlands are not usually tapped directly for human drinking water supplies.

Explanation:

Egypt is a country in the region of Northern Africa, more specifically located in the northeastern part of it. The country is dominated by desert, the Sahara desert, and it has one body of water in it, the Nile River.

The Nile River has been crucial for the existence of the people in Egypt for thousands of years, and it continues to be in the present as well. The river provides freshwater for drinking, for usage at homes, for the industry, irrigation, and it is also used for fishing, traveling, and transportation.

Considering that the banks of the Nile River are the only place in Egypt that provide conditions for permanent settling, it is no wonder that the majority of Egypt's population lives on the banks of the river, especially in the northern part of the country.

A mountain range in western china from which several other ranges radiate

Answers

Answer:

Himalayan Mountain Range

Explanation:

In the western part of China it is located part of the largest mountain range in the world, the Himalayan Mountain Range. This mountain range is the highest, with its top elevation at Mount Everest at 8,848 meters above sea level. This mountain range is the base for several other mountain ranges and plateaus, with the Tibetan Plateau being largest by area and the best known of them. The Himalayas have formed as a result of the collision, or rather convergent plate boundary between India and Eurasia. As India hit Eurasia, both continental masses were pushing against each other, causing the surrounding area to gradually lift up, creating a mountain range. The process is still not finished though, as the collision is still going on, so this mountain range is constantly becoming higher and higher.

The indian subcontinent was partitioned into _____.

Answers

Answer:

two countries, India and Pakistan

Explanation:

After the World War II, the British Empire was economically and military exhausted, and on top of it the country had lot of repairing to do on its own soil. This made them to start granting independence to their colonies as they were no longer powerful enough to keep them and control them. India was one of those colonies. The British though decided to partition the Indian subcontinent into two countries in order to avoid conflicts if it was only one country because of the tensions between the two major religious groups, Hindus and Muslims. This resulted into the creation of two countries eventually, India and Pakistan. India was the Hindu dominated territory, Pakistan was the Muslim dominated territory. This didn't prevent the conflicts though, instead in sparked them, with lot of riots, violence, displacement, murdering of people because of their religion taking place, and the tensions are still there even in the present. As it was not enough that there were two countries formed out of one, a third one emerged later on, with Bangladesh fighting for its independence and getting it after a long and bloody conflict.

How does a convection cell in the mantle lead to volcanism at the mid-ocean ridge?

Answers

The convection cell is basically a self-contained in which there is a motion, where the hotter fluid is moving upward because of the lesser density, while the cooler fluid is moving downward because it is denser. This leads to constant circular movement of the magma in the mantle layer, and the one that moves upward is constantly creating big pressure on the crust above it, penetrating through the cracks in it or melting it and intruding. As the magma pushes upward, it manages to get through the thinner and cracked crust between the plates that move away from each other at the divergent boundary. The magma reaches the ocean floor and quickly cools off, creating new crust, and that continues constantly, with more and more magma coming out and more and more new crust pilling up, eventually creating an underwater mountain range of volcanic origin known as mid-ocean ridge.
