Sediment is natural earth material. It consists of soil particles of all sizes ranging from the smallest, “silt (mud) and sand”, to larger sizes which include the gravels, cobbles and boulders. Sediment also includes extremely hard and very large materials (bedrock) and very small tightly compacted materials (clay). All of these materials succumb to the forces of erosion from water, wind and pressures caused by expanding and contracting forces. A stream contains a certain variety of sediment based upon its geology, topography, precipitation rates and other factors in the watershed. The study of the land and water interactions is called “fluvial geomorphology”.

Summarize how the climate of the Miocene epoch impacted the evolution of hominins

andrezito [222]

Answer with Explanation:

The Miocene epoch was deeply characterized by seasonal conditions, such as having more colder winters in the northern areas.

In the late Miocene, open vegetation system expanded. These included grasslands, woodlands and shrublands. As a result, more primates inhabited the area. Several habitats became diverse from each other, thus allowing the species to adapt, including their locomotion. For example, the species who used to live on trees, turn towards living on land (terrestrial life). Certain animals also came about such as pigs, giraffes, monkeys, etc. Scavenging hominins also scattered. When it comes to hominins, a major type of locomotion evolved called "bipedalism." This allowed the hominins to walk using the lower limbs (two feet).

Answer:

Pressure with Height: pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.In addition, gravity is weaker at the equator due to centrifugal forces produced by the planet's rotation. It's also weaker at higher altitudes, further from Earth's centre, such as at the summit of Mount Everest

Describe the flow of blood from the umbilical vein to the descending aorta in the developing fetus.

n200080 [17]

Oxygen and nutrients from the mother's blood are transferred across the placenta to the fetus through the umbilical cord. This enriched blood flows through the umbilical vein toward the baby's liver. There it moves through a shunt called the ductus venosus. This allows some of the blood to go to the liver.

A small amount of the blood continues on to the lungs. Most of this blood is shunted through the ductus arteriosus to the descending aorta. This blood then enters the umbilical arteries and flows into the placenta. The oxygen rich blood then returns to the fetus via the third vessel in the umbilical cord (umbilical vein). The oxygen rich blood that enters the fetus passes through the fetal liver and enters the right side of the heart.

What frog system is the most differnt from the human system

Anna71 [15]

The central nervous system of the frog is different from that of humans; if the optic nerve of a frog is cut, the animal will be able to see again within weeks but the same damage in humans would cause permanent blindness :).
