<span>The term to complete the sentence is runoff. Runoff refers to water that cannot be absorbed by the soil because it is saturated. This water is generated by rainfall, snowfall, or melting of snow or glaciers.These waters are a major cause of erosion and of flooding in urban areas. Urbanization contributes to the generation of these waters given that the natural soil is substiituted with pavement.</span>

Arrange the layers in order from oldest to youngest.
Verizon [17]

From oldest to youngest: I, B, F, M, R, H.

Explanation:

On the picture we can see several layers of rock. Some of the layers have not been disturbed, so the principle of superposition can be applied to them. Some of the layer though have been disturbed by geological processes, so the layers are not at the same level because of it. On top of it, there is also an intrusion that has managed to further cause disturbance through all of the layers.

  • The layer I is the oldest, and it is the basis of the others.
  • Layer B has formed next, and after that layer F.
  • These three layers have been influenced by the formation of fault, where one of their sides has been moving up relative to the other, while the other has been moving down relative to the other.
  • Layer M is younger layer, and it can easily be seen as it totally covers the layer F below it.
  • On top is layer R, which is the youngest of them all (the layers), and the one that comes out on the surface.
  • Layer H is not really a layer, but it is an intrusion, which has formed after magma managed to cut through all the layers and later solidify. It is the youngest formation.

Desert pavement is created as a result of A) abrasion. B)deflation. C)blowouts. D)water erosion
irga5000 [103]

Desert pavement is created as a result of deflation. Desert pavement is formed by the process of deflation. Normally, small and fine fragments are carried by wind since they are light in weight as the larger compact particles are left behind. What remains is rocky, compact, and not easily eroded, and it is what is commonly referred to as the desert pavement.

how would living in a house where space and water are heated solely by the sun influence a person's life?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

It would<u> reduce the dependence on traditional ways of living.</u>

Explanation:

  • Living in a place were water and space are heated directly by sunlight or sun influence would be quiet interesting and challenging as the sun is the nearest star to planet earth and this star will continue to  grow in size, and also the resources on surface of earth are finite and thus any overuse of these resources can lead to their depletion.
  • Use of this solar light or heat is essential as its an inexhaustible resource that can be stored at specific temperatures and used in terms of lightning, billing waters from heat generated by sun photovoltaic cells.  
  • The same energy that is needed r warm the surface of the earth falling on rooftops of the house can recharge the energy bill of the entire country for which sun harvesting has to be implemented.  
  • Like solar terracing and many farmers and people have done gardening on their roofs and many innovative techniques are being developed for a sustainable future.
