Answer:

Explanation:

The uplift caused a wide range of elevations and climates in the Sierra Nevada, which are reflected by the presence of five life zones (areas with similar plant and animal communities).

This question may require more information to provide a more accurate answer.

A fault block mountain range is formed by tension as rocks are pulled away from each other. A fault block is a section of rock bounded on at least two sides by faults.
Faults commonly break the crust into large, fault bounded blocks. If normal faults down drop one fault block relative to other blocks on either side, the resulting feature is called a Graben.
A block that is uplifted relative to blocks in either side is called a horst.

You apply a net force on a soccer ball of 15 N. If the acceleration it has is 5 m/s2 what is the mass of the ball?​
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

<h2>3 kg </h2>

Explanation:

The mass of the ball can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{f}{a}  \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

We have

m =  \frac{15}{5}  = 3 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>3 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

When very electronegative atoms, like oxygen, bond to atoms with lower electronegativity, like lithium, what's the result?
umka2103 [35]

(A) The oxygen atom becomes strongly negative.

Explanation:

When a very electronegative atom like oxygen bonds to an atom with a lower electronegativity, like lithium, the oxygen atom becomes strongly negative and the lithium becomes strongly positive.

The attraction between these oppositely charged ions results in the formation ionic bond.

  • An ionic bond is an interatomic bond in which a highly electronegative atom is bonded to less electronegative one.
  • The electronegative nature of the oxgyen allows is to gain the electrons lost by weakly electronegative lthium.
  • Most metals have low electronegativity.
  • They then both will form ions.
  • The attraction between the oppositely charged ions results in an ionic/electrovalent bonding.

Why does a comet's tail point away from the Sun? 1Choice 1 The solar wind blows the tail away from the Sun. 2 It is being pulled
AnnyKZ [126]

Choice 1

The Sun's radiation and solar wind cause the dust and gas around the comet (coma) to stretch the coma. The solar wind electromagnetically blows the ions in the coma away.

Earth’s largest ecosystems, biomes, are defined primarily by:
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: e. All of the above.

Explanation:

Rainfall, temperature, seasonal variability are the important factors which determines the type of vegetation will grow in a biome, the type of animals will adapt and survive. Also these factors also determine the fact that type of landforms will form over a region. These factors are necessary for the development of the biodiversity. A biodiversity can be define as the variability and variety of life forms that can be found in the ecosystem or biome.
