Answer:
Sediments transported and deposited during the Pleistocene glaciations are abundant throughout Canada. They are important sources of construction materials and are valuable as reservoirs for groundwater. Because they are almost all unconsolidated, they have significant implications for mass wasting.
The Bering Glacier is the largest in North America, and although most of it is in Alaska, it flows from an icefield that extends into southwestern Yukon. The surface of the ice is partially, or in some cases completely, covered with rocky debris that has fallen from surrounding steep rock faces. There are muddy rivers issuing from the glacier in several locations, depositing sediment on land, into Vitus Lake, and directly into the ocean. There are dirty icebergs shedding their sediment into the lake. And, not visible in this view, there are sediments being moved along beneath the ice.
Explanation:
Subglacial sediment (e.g., lodgement till) is material that has been eroded from the underlying rock by the ice, and is moved by the ice. It has a wide range of grain sizes, including a relatively high proportion of silt and clay. The larger clasts (pebbles to boulders in size) tend to become partly rounded by abrasion. When a glacier eventually melts, the lodgement till is exposed as a sheet of well-compacted sediment ranging from several centimetres to many metres in thickness. Lodgement till is normally unbedded. An example is shown in Figure 16.31a.
Supraglacial sediments are primarily derived from freeze-thaw eroded material that has fallen onto the ice from rocky slopes above. These sediments form lateral moraines (Figure 16.1) and, where two glaciers meet, medial moraines. (Medial moraines are visible on the Aletsch Glacier in Figure 16.22.) Most of this material is deposited on the ground when the ice melts, and is therefore called ablation till, a mixture of fine and coarse angular rock fragments, with much less sand, silt, and clay than lodgement till. An example is shown in Figure 16.31b. When supraglacial sediments become incorporated into the body of the glacier, they are known as englacial sediments

The Cycle of Cause & Effect in Bovine Spongiform Encephalitis
A flowchart. Cow is fed infected meat from felled animals. The cow develops B S E. May or may not show symptoms. If the cow dies from B S E, cow is slaughtered or dies. Waste products fed to other animals, which repeats the cycle. If the cow is slaughtered and sold as meat for humans, human develops C J D, the human form of B S E. Human dies from C J D and the cycle is broken.
Answer: just put it in the right order and the cause and effect wht grade u in u never learned cause and effect?
Explanation:
Answer:
The cycle stops with people dying because of a disease that is found in cows.

What does the word “byproduct mean”
Answer:
an incidental or secondary product made in the manufacture or synthesis of something else.
Explanation:
Byproducts are chemicals that are released unintentionally in the production of something else. In this case, photosynthesis is a process where carbon dioxide is transformed into glucose. Glucose is what provides the energy for the plant to survive. Oxygen is also created as a result of photosynthesis, or in other words, oxygen is a byproduct produced during photosynthesis.

How will it have an impact on the world in 200 years for the solar Sailing on Sunlight?
Answer: Solar sails use a phenomenon that has a proven, measured effect on astrodynamics. Solar pressure affects all spacecraft, whether in interplanetary space or in orbit around a planet or small body. A typical spacecraft going to Mars, for example, will be displaced thousands of kilometers by solar pressure, so the effects must be accounted for in trajectory planning, which has been done since the time of the earliest interplanetary spacecraft of the 1960s. Solar pressure also affects the orientation of a spacecraft, a factor that must be included in spacecraft design.
