Answer: the answer is 9282
Explanation: i did this already
Explanation:
The Earth is closest to the Sun every January, but it is the fact that the north pole of the Earth's axis is tilted away from the Sun at that time of year which causes it to be winter in the northern hemisphere. B. Given the effects of precession, will this still be the case in 13,000 years?
Answer:
Glacier Landforms: Trough. Glacial troughs, or glaciated valleys, are long, U-shaped valleys that were carved out by glaciers that have since receded or disappeared. Troughs tend to have flat valley floors and steep, straight sides. Fjords, such as those in Norway, are coastal troughs carved out by glaciers.
Or: Steep U shaped valleys that connect with the sea and fill with water when the glaciers melt. Now keep scrolling;)

Answer:
They found evidence of an impact crater in Mexico
Explanation:
The K-Pg boundary is the boundary that separates two periods, but also two eras. The two periods that are separated by this boundary are the Cretaceous and the Tertiary, while the two eras are the Mesozoic and the Cenozoic. The boundary is marked by a mass extinction, and the scientists started to hypothesize as to why it happened. There were numerous different theories, but a clue in Mexico, or rather right next to the Yucatan Peninsula, shed new light on it. The scientists found an impact crater, formed either by a large asteroid or a comet. Such an impact would have easily caused sudden and drastic changes on the Earth, killing of the majority of the species. This impact released such a big amount of energy that it killed everything in the surrounding area in seconds. On top of that, it caused an extremely hot wave of air across the whole planet, killing many more organisms. It managed to trigger most of the volcanoes to erupt, as well as the earthquakes, causing also very large tsunamis. The sunlight got blocked for quite some time from all the aerosols in the atmosphere as well. This resulted in a mass extinction of the dominant species, like the dinosaurs, but it opened up the terrain for the evolution of the others, like the mammals.
