1. tectonic compression
The anticlines and synclines are both physical features that occur in the crust because of tectonic compression. The movement of the tectonic plates causes enormous pressure on the crust. This pressure gradually manages to twist and bend the crust, so much so that if the crust is cut through it will look like waves, or having a snake-shape. The anticlines are the folds at which each half dips away from the fold, while the synclines are the folds when each half dips toward the trough of the fold.
2. that the crust was shearing in a right-lateral motion
The Wasatch fault is normal type of fault. It is divided into five segments which together have a length of around 240 km. This fault has started to form around 10,000 years ago, and it has produced lot of strong earthquakes. This fault occurred while the crust was shearing in a right-lateral motion, which actually managed to move the Wasatch Mountain toward east. The fault is still active at some parts, and considering that its surrounding is heavily populated and the area is covered with soft lake sediments, there can be a big disaster in the future.
3. Material moves down a slope parallel to the layers of the underlying bedrock
The transitional slides are types of mass movement. They occur on places where the layers are parallel to one another, and the top layer is moving, eventually falling down a slope. Even though the top material is parallel to the layers of the underlying bedrock, a saturation of the top material, or a side pressure can move it, gradually making it move on top of the underlying bedrock until it comes to the slope and crumbles down.
4. delta
When a larger river enters the sea its waters slow down, and eventually stop in the larger body of water where they mix and become part of it. As the river is getting closer to the sea, it gradually slows down, and as it slows down it loses its velocity. By losing its velocity the river is not capable to carry the large amounts of sediment with it, so it starts depositing them. Gradually the deposits of sediments build up and they interfere with the movement of the water of the river, so the river starts to branch out and the water starts to move into the spaces where there are less deposits. This creates a triangular shaped natural feature known as delta.
The answer is A, Britain.
India and Pakistan were British colonies until post WWII, when Britain could no longer support them financially. Pakistan gained independence in 1947, and India gained independence in 1947
Answer: B. temporarily or permanently suspended in the flow
Explanation:
Suspended load refers to the sediments in a flowing waterbody that do not settle to the bottom but rather continually move with the motion of the water. They are therefore temporarily or permanently suspended in the flow.
They are usually made up of light and fine particles which can easily be moved such as silt and fine sands.
Answer:
They preserve the entire fossil remain rather than there traces.
Explanation:
- Amber is a fossilized resin from an ancient forest. It used as a healing agent in folklore. It is a product of high pressure and temperature.
- They occur in a wide range of color and many geological records are found in amber hidden fossils. Its main property is to preserve the complete chemical and physical properties of the fossil.
- Oldest known amber was of an arthropod, often found in association with insects. The amber fossils are believed to have been derived from older Eocene deposits. Later formations of glacial drift.
- While a mold of fossil is formed by an animal, plane or other organisms which upon dying to get covered sediments and later its bones are decay due to chemical processes. Mold fossils tell traces of extinct organisms like trail track etc.
- Molds and casts are three-dimensional representations of organisms.
Answer:
A,B,D
Explanation:
I believe that "B" is a possibly one; if not, then just A and D.
Also by examining other economy; you can learn from it, what people do and how they live their lives, same with listening to different music from there, because people listen to different music in different cultures as well.^^
Have a great day, and let me know if its correct or not, if so I will take down the answer or fix it if its wrong.
