Law of lateral horizontality or law of original horizontality.

The law of primordial horizontality states that all rock formations are initially deposited (deposited) horizontally and can be deformed later. from this, we can conclude that something must have happened to the rock that caused it to tilt. These include orogenic events, earthquakes, and faults.

Laws of geology?

  • Uniformity: the present is the key to the past.
  • Pure horizontality: sedimentary layers are deposited first in horizontal strata.
  • Superposition: the lowest layer is the oldest, and it gets younger as it accumulates.

The term, coined by William Whewell, was first proposed by English naturalists in the late 18th century as an antidote to catastrophe. It originated with geologist James Hutton starting his research in many of his books, including his theory of the earth.

Answer:

a) Mass wasting  - 4) Landslides or other collapses

b) Heating and cooling - 2) Type of physical weathering

c) Dust bowl  - 1) Severe farmland erosion

d) Oxidation - 3) Type of chemical weathering

Explanation:

a) Mass wasting is defined as the slope movement which causes the downslope of soil, sand, and rock under the influence of the force of gravity. So, mass wasting causes landslides and other collapses due to slope movement.

b) Heating and cooling or temperature changes is a type of physical weathering. Rocks expand at high temperatures (Hot) and contracts at lower temperature (Cool).

c) Dust bowl : When grasses in farmlands are not tightly rooted, the eroding soil led to massive dust bowl and blow the grasses in the farmlands.

d) Oxidation is a type of chemical weathering. Oxidation is defined as the reaction of a substance with oxygen, when oxygen reacts with rocks and soil, it forms oxides which result in weathering.      

Hence, the correct answer is:

a) Mass wasting  - 4) Landslides or other collapses

b) Heating and cooling - 2) Type of physical weathering

c) Dust bowl  - 1) Severe farmland erosion

d) Oxidation - 3) Type of chemical weathering

Arte-miy333 [17]

A direct democracy is a system of government in which every citizen votes on every issue.  The opposite of this is a representative democracy, in which the citizens vote for representatives who will then vote on issues on behalf of their constituents.

Why do stars appear in different parts of the sky during different months?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Earth Makes Star Positions Change and Constellations Are Not Constant

Explanation:

As the planet rotates, the moon and stars appear to move across the sky just the way the sun does during the day.

Stars that you see at night belong to the Milky Way galaxy. The sun sits on one of the galaxy's arms and rotates around the center of the galaxy. Other stars in the galaxy follow their own orbits as well.
