The changing Earth's surface affects society through landslides, land subsidence, floods and other natural hazards. These disasters can be both deadly and costly to society: t<span>he Thistle landslide was the most costly single landslide event in U.S. history with costs exceeding $400 million. Land began shifting in Thistle, Utah in 1983 because of groundwater buildup from heavy rains during the previous fall and the melting of deep snowpack from the winter. Within a few weeks, the landslide dammed the Spanish Fork River, destroying U.S. Highway 6 and the main line of the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad. The landslide dam caused flood waters to rise which in turn led to lead the inundation of the surrounding area. The town of Thistle was completely obliterated.</span>

3.) What cellular processes are necessary for cells to perform in order to maintain homeostasis?

zaharov [31]

Answer:

Photosynthesis, respiration, diffusion, osmosis

Explanation:

Homeostasis refers to the ability of an organism to maintain a stable internal state despite changes in external environment. In order to perform this process, some processes are required to be performed by the cell including:

- Photosynthesis, which is the process by which plants synthesize their food, helps the plant supply energy needed by the cell to perform it's function.

- Cellular respiration is the process of synthesizing energy (ATP) by the cell. Energy is needed by the cell for the numerous functions it carries out. Hence, cellular respiration is a homeostatic process.

- Diffusion is the process by which substance move from a region of high conc. to a region of low conc. until there is even distribution. Without diffusion, some materials cannot get into the cell, hence, it is a homeostatic process.

- Osmosis is the movement of water from a region with high water conc. to a region of low water conc. via a permeable membrane. The osmotic process is also a homeostatic one.

Most fossils are found in what type of rock?

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

<h2>Sedimentary</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Sedimentary rocks are formed when layers upon layers of old sediments from river beds build up. They eventually form a rock. This rock is typically the softest of all the rock types, and therefore the best rock to hold fossils. Igneous rocks are rocks that are formed as a result of volcanic activity. They are created when lava cools. These rocks are unlikely to hold fossils because they are too hard. Metamorphic rocks are rocks that started out life as a different type of rock. They were then subducted under the earths surface where extreme heat and pressure actually changed hem into a different type of rock. Fossils are unlikely in this type of rock because all that heat and pressure has made the rock very hard. Because of this, the most accurate answer would be: sedimentary rock.
