Answer: C. On a sloped parking lot

Surface runoff can be referred as the flow of water, that occurs when the excess water flows from the storm water, melt water, flood, rain streams and rain fall. The fast moving water current takes along with it superficial layers like surface and sub- surface layers of soil. Hence, causes water erosion of soil.

The slope parking lot will favor, surface runoff more likely than in a grassy prairie, mulched flower bed, or in a sand pit because the slope will provide a surface for free flow of water. There are chances that water gets absorbed by the soil in the grassy prairie, mulched flower bed and sand pit. Whereas the slopy surface of parking lot will not allow the water retention by soil, instead will accelerate the flow of water.

Gabbro and _____ have similar chemical characteristics.

torisob [31]

The answer is a. basalt. Gabbro rocks are more related to basalt in terms of chemical characteristics. They are both igneous rocks but basalt is an extrusive rock that cools quickly while gabbro is intrusive and cools slowly. So, basalt rocks are fine-grained while gabbro are coars-grained.

What happens to the effenciency of the exchange of oxygen in the human body at a high altitude

Daniel [21]

Answer:

The effiency decreases at higher altitudes

Explanation:

The higher up a person is on a mountain, the thinner the air is due to the lack of plants that can grow. An example of this is Mount Everest. At a certian point on the mountain, called the "Death Zone", the air is too thin to supply enough oxygen to the human body to survive. That's why they bring oxygen tanks with them on their adventures.
