In the winter its color changes to more resemble their <em>winter</em> surroundings, so they are more white, enabling them to blend in better with their white surroundings. In summer, its color changes to more resemble its <u><em /></u><em>summer</em> surroundings, so they are more brown like the rocks and ground around them.

The half life of Carbon 14 is 5500 years. How many years will pass for a 30 gram sample to reach 3.75 grams
sertanlavr [38]
Half life is the time taken by a radioactive isotope to decay by half of its original mass. In this case the half life of carbon-14 is 5500 years. 
The original mass is 30 g and the new mass is 3.75 g. 
New mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n, where n is the number of half lives; 
3.75 = 30 × (1/2)^n
 1/8 = (1/2)^n
 n = 3 
Thus, the time taken will be; 3 × 5500 = 16500 years.

Compare and Contrast weathering and erosion.
Alecsey [184]
Weathering is the decomposition of rocks, soils and their minerals through direct contact with the Earth's atmosphere. Erosion is displacement of solids (soil, mud, rock and other particles) usually by the agents of currents such as, wind, water, or ice by downward or down-slope movement in response to gravity or by living organisms. Erosion occurs because of factors like wind, water, ice, human activities like deforestation etc. Weathering, on the other hand is caused by contact with the earth's atmosphere. These atmospheric conditions may be heat, pressure etc.

That's how they are different.
