<h2>Answer:</h2>

(b) The formation of the ice age glaciers occurred about 21,000 years ago.

Explanation:

The last glacial period occurred in the period between 115,000 - 11,700 years in the past with the recent glacial period called Quaternary glaciation. Though some call this period the last ice age, it is a wrong definition because ice age is defined by year-long ice which still persists in the Antarctica and Greenland. The last glaciation that occurred 21,000 years in the past, is the last glaciation on Rocky Mountain.

It occurred in the period 31,000 - 10,000 years and between 23,500 - 21,000, it was at its highest. The glaciation was not made of the giant ice sheet but was made of mountain glaciers known as Cordilleran Ice Sheets. These sheets produced Lake Missoula which late caused Missoula flooding.

1. The First Quarter Moon always occurs
Artemon [7]

Answer:

1.- b. when the Moon is at right angles to the direction of the Sun.

2.-b. when the Moon is directly opposite the position of the Sun.

3.-b. when the Moon is closer to the Sun than the Earth is.

Explanation:

  • The First Quarter Moon is when we can see exactly half of the Moon's surface illuminated. If it is the left or right half, it depends on where you are on Earth. If we observe the diagram I added we can see than <em>the moon is at right angles to the direction of the Sun</em> when it's in this phase.
  • Full Moon happens when<em> the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun</em>, this makes the bright side of the Moon face the Earth. This is also observable in the diagram.
  • The New Moon always occurs when <em>the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun, therefore it's closer to the Sun than the Earth</em>, the bright side of the Moon is facing away from the Earth. You can check this in the diagram as well.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
