Geography

kykrilka [37]2 years ago

Answer:

Mesosphere lies in between 50 to 80 km above the earth surface and due to low density gases escape easily and hence it is colder.

Explanation:

Mesosphere has the capacity to not absorb the infrared radiation that's why the gases reflected from the earth surface escape the layer of mesopause and goes inside the thermosphere.

In the thermosphere, even the minute atoms of gases ca be absorbed by the layer which increases the air temperature and the air rises up hence making thermosphere as the hottest layer in the atmosphere.

Answer:

Answer are written below:

Explanation:

1) It is very important to have a universal method established to guide archaeological excavations because you have to planned out everything in order to find a method or a way to work through the study.

2)  Understanding our past is important to our future because studying history enables us to understand the world better and the past gives us courage and protects us from harm.

3) It would be more challenging to be a prehistoric archaeologist as compared to historical archaeologist because historic archaeology is easier to study due to the presence in written form whereas  Prehistoric archaeology is very difficult to study due to no written records are present.

4) I will work as an academic archaeologist as compared to cultural resource management (CRM) archaeologist because academic archaeologists are active researchers in their field which also published their work in the books, journals, and popular publications.
