<u>Answer:</u>

The wind belt of the prevailing westerlies has the greatest effect of the climate of New York state.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • The state of New York lies between 40° North latitude and 45° North latitude.
  • This orientation of the sate brings it exactly in the middle of the westerly belt in the northern hemisphere that stretches from 30° North latitude to 60°  North latitude.
  • Hence, the winds flowing in this belt affect the 'climate of the state of New York'.

I believe its the prevailing westerlies. They are prevailing winds from the west toward the east in the middle latitudes between 30 and 60 degrees latitude. They originate from the high pressure areas in the horse latitudes and trend towards the poles and steer extra tropical cyclones.

Magnetic patterns develop on the seafloor as basaltic lava erupts and cools, and ______.
BartSMP [9]

<u>Iron-rich minerals align with the Earth's magnetic field</u> as basaltic lava erupts, cools, and forms magnetic patterns on the seabed.

Lava is molten rock that emerges as a liquid from under the Earth's surface. The term "lava" is also used to describe the rock that is generated when molten lava cools and solidifies. Either the substance is exceedingly stiff and barely flows, or it might be incredibly fluid, flowing nearly like syrup. The viscosity of the lava increases with silica concentration.

Hawaiian terms pahoehoe and aa (or a'a) refer to flows that are often formed by mafic (ferromagnesian, dark-colored) lavas like basalt. Smooth, subtly undulating, or extensively hummocky surfaces define Pahoehoe lava flows. A thin, still-plastic crust is dragged and wrinkled into twisted rope-like folds and rolls by the flowing molten lava beneath it.

a fault is found that cuts through lower rock layers but not those above it. which can most likely be concluded?​
grin007 [14]

The fault is younger than the lower rocks but older those above it.

Explanation:

A fault found that cuts through lower rock layers but not those above it suggests that the fault is younger than the lower rock but older than those above it.

This interpretation is based on the principle of cross-cutting which states that "an intrusion or fault is younger than the rocks they cut through".

  • In essence, an intrusion or fault cannot cut through a rock sequence unless it is already in place.
  • This is why the fault that cuts through the rock layers is younger than the rock layers.
  • But since it did not pass through the layers above, it is older than it.
