Answer: The phrase that best explains what remote sensing can help us do is; study a place without having to be there.
The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
This type of sensing (remote) is when a satellite is in space or even by an aircraft taking pictures. They do this to find out things about the space around them. They can map out places and get more information about the landscape.
If an area of HIGH pressure were located to the EAST of West Chester, our surface wind direction would be - south.
<u>Explanation:</u>
A system of high pressure contains pressure to be very higher at the center of the area than the other areas around it. The blowing of wind wind takes off the high pressure built in an area. An anticyclonic flow occurs when the system high pressure winds blows in a direction that is opposite to the system of low pressure winds.
It blows in the clockwise direction in the northern side of the equator and anticlockwise in southern side of equator. The direction of surface wind will be opposite in the low pressure systems. Thus, if a high pressure exist in an area then the direction of surface wind will be opposite direction.
Answer:
23. b
25. b
27. b
28. b
29. a
Explanation:
23. The earth have seasons because our Earth orbits around the sun with the Earth's axis of rotation being tilted at an angle of to the plane of the orbit.
24. Ozone in the protect us against the harmful ultraviolet rays coming from the sun.
The ozone layer is found to be located at the Stratosphere's lower part where the variation in its thickness depends on the seasons and the geography.
25. This phenomena is termed as equinox where at this time period, the Sun is Directly over the equator.
26. The part of the earth that provides us the protection against emissions from the sun is 'atmosphere' and it also creates the Aurora Borealis which is formed as a result of the interaction of the charged particles resulting from a storm of proton with the atmosphere giving rise to the aurora.
27. In a closed system, any waste items delivered by one animal types must be utilized by at different species.
28. Positive feedback promotes change as in this the underlying impact is improved or enhanced.
29. Sinks are those locations in a system where resources are collected..
Answer:
Igneous rock is formed by the cooling and crystallization of molten magma at volcanoes and mid-ocean ridges, where new crust is generated. Examples of igneous rock are basalt, granite, and andesite (Fig. 7.57 A).
