Definition of erosion (according to National Geographic): “Erosion is the geological process in which earthen materials are worn away and transported by natural forces such as wind or water.”
1. Describe the features that water erosion produces in your images (mountains, canyons, deserts, etc?) What do they have in COMMON?
Mountains: Water erosion would create a waterway around the mountains.
Canyons: Water erosion would create more area between the canyons.
Deserts: Water erosion would generally change the desert’s landscape by making the hills more downslope.
What they have in common: They all create changes to the landscape of different areas.
2. You can see water erosion even when you do not see water. How is this possible? Be clear!
This is possible by rain?
- I’m not exactly sure about this question.
Answer:
b. Antarctica's ice
Explanation:
Earth is flatter at the South Pole than the North Pole because of the weight of the Antarctica's ice.
The Antarctica ice cap is the largest single mass of ice on earth. It covers almost 14 million square kilometers and it weighs 26,500,000 Gigatons.
As a result of this heavy weight, it compresses the South Pole of the earth causing the earth to be flatter at the South Pole.
This gives the Earth its slight pear shape.
Carbon neutral is a term used to describe carbon-based fuel that when burned will not increase carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. these fuels neither contribute to nor reduce the amount carbon so the carbon will remain the same.
so I think carbon neutral is good for the environment but not us humans
