b. How does weathering affect Earth's surface?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Weathering and erosion constantly change the rocky landscape of Earth. Weathering wears away exposed surfaces over time. The length of exposure often contributes to how vulnerable a rock is to weathering. Rocks, such as lavas, that are quickly buried beneath other rocks are less vulnerable to weathering and erosion than rocks that are exposed to agents such as wind and water.

Explanation:

Weathering describes the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of the Earth. Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering. Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and mineral away. No rock on Earth is hard enough to resist the forces of weathering and erosion. Together, these processes carved landmarks such as the Grand Canyon, in the U.S. state of Arizona. This massive canyon is 446 kilometers (277 miles) long, as much as 29 kilometers (18 miles) wide, and 1,600 meters (1 mile) deep.

A group of rabbits lives in an area that normally has mild winters that are not too cold. This
winter, however, is very cold with lots of snow. Which trait would best help a rabbit survive this
environmental stress? *
(1 Point)
A. extra thick fur
B. long ears
C. dark colored fur
D. little body fat

Answers

Answer:

A. Extra thick fur

Explanation:

Because the winter is cold and little body fat and a dark colored fur will get it killed faster, but long ears can help the bunny hear the danger but I don't think there will be any predetors out in the harsh snow.

what is the name given to animals that feed on plants for food?​

Answers

Answer:

herbivores

Explanation:

answer:
that animal is called herbivores

Can someone help me out please?!!!!!!!!

Answers

Producers are organisms that make their own food. Plants would be an example. Primary consumers would be those that eat producers(plants,algae). Secondary consumers are animals that eat primary consumers. Herbivores are animals that only eat plants. Carnivores are those that only eat meat and don’t eat plants. Omnivores are those that eat both meat and plants. De composers are those that decompose organic material like dead animals. The herbivores here are the kangaroo rats,grasshoppers and bunny’s. The carnivores here are the hawk,lizard,tarantula and rattlesnake. I don’t think there is an omnivore. And the only decomposed here is the bacteria. As it decomposes the bodies of the animals when they are dead.

Explanation:

A haploid has one, which refers to the sex cells (eggs/sperm)

diploid has 2

We have 2 genes here, so we are coding for 2
different traits, AKA 2 distinct and separate
phenotypes
However, both phenotypes are present in each
offspring cat.
So, for example we could have a hairy, sink-
loving cat (like one of the parents) or a
hairless, sink-hating cat (like the other
parent). What are the other possibilities for
phenotype?
Make sure to include both traits (hair/hairless
and feelings about sinks) for each possible
phenotype.

Answers

Answer:

50% hairy and love sinks

50% hairless and hate sinks

Bleeding from artery is more dangerous than that from vein, why?​

Answers

Answer:

Due to the high pressure arteries hold and it is difficult to control.

Explanation:

Consider most of the arteries (minus the pulmonary arteries) have a thicker layer (lumen) that basically  resists the ejection of blood from the heart. Arteries hold oxygenated blood to the vital organs (the heart itself throught he coronary arteries, the brain that needs EXCLUSIVE oxygenated blood, and lungs). Contrasted to a bleeding vein, bleeding from an artery tends to go faster, which increases the risk of hemorrhage and death.

if you need an analogy, think of it with a hose:  if you take the hose and sever it after it's pumped into the hose on ground level, but the pump is still pumping the water, it will no longer be evenly distributed and spill everywhere.

Answers

Answer:

The trilobite is the oldest.

Explanation:

In general terms (disregarding specific examples), the lower the level in the stratosphere, the older it is. In this case, the lowest level is taken by the trilobite.

Note however, that this is not always the case, especially near edges of the plates. Sometimes plates shift, which can cause certain older fossils to be moved upwards, while newer ones are shifted downward, as one plate "eats the other". Territory creations, including valleys and mountains when plates crash into each other, can also shift where a fossil is located.

Answer:

the trilobite is oldest and that's the answer

- Habitat destruction affects all species within that habitat

- Deforestation

- Pollution decreases the chance of species surviving as they eat plastic and other pollutants and get extremely sick from it

- Nature reserves and green spaces increase the chances of certain species surviving more

- Gardens and hedgerows increase the likelihood of a species surviving by giving it a small habitat to grow in and provides a new environment to thrive in

Why is vision one of the most important sense that you can have?

Answers

Answer:

Sight and vision are important because they allow us to connect with our surroundings, keep us safe, and help maintain the sharpness of our minds. Sight and vision are different entities. Sight is physical – it is a sensory experience in which light reflects off of shapes and objects and the eyes then focus this light.

Vision is one of the most important senses that you can have because it brings your world into a more better and clearer focus. That way you’ll be able to visual things in your mindset, for example when you’re reading a book you can visual what the characters are doing. You are also able to look and interact with things. If you didn’t have vision it would be hard and complicated to do so.

Answer:

318,6 ms-1

Explanation:

Como sabemos que la relación entre la velocidad del sonido en el aire y la temperatura viene dada por;

V = 331√T / 273

Dónde;

V = velocidad del sonido

T = temperatura en kelvin = (-20) + 273 = 253 K
