Which force causes mass movements?

Geography

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. Gravity.

Explanation:

Mass movement is mainly caused by the force of gravity.

We can find this kind of force in all the parts that make up the <u>earth's surface</u>.

If an object is on a flat surface, which is on par with the surface of the Earth, the force of gravity will "pull it down." This is what holds us to the ground and prevents us from gravity affecting us. As long as we remain on the flat surface, we will not move down. But if somehow the surface where we are standing weakens or fails, the support mass will fall down.

How would the weathering of a bear mountain peak differ from the weathering of bedrock under a forest?
monitta

The weathering of the mountain peak will be mostly through the influence of the wind, water, and ice, while the bedrock under a forest will be influenced by the plants.

Explanation:

The weathering is a process that occurs everywhere in the world, on the surface and close to the surface of the planet. This process is basically the breaking up of particles from larger masses of rocks. Which type of weathering will be dominant at a particular place depends n multiple factors, such as:

  • topography
  • vegetation
  • climate
  • presence/absence of water

A bear mountain peak will be exposed to strong winds. Also, the lack of vegetation will enable the water from the rainfall to have big influence, while in the colder months the formation of ice will contribute to significant weathering. On the other side, the bedrock under a forest will have minimal influence from wind, water, and ice, as the vegetation provides protection. The vegetation on the other hand, with its roots, as well as with the decomposition will manage to weather the rocks, both on the surface and inside the ground.

Most of the land in Algeria, Libya, and Egypt is in the Sahara desert. Which best
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Correct answer is 4. Under 2.5 people per sq. mi. (VERY low density)

Explanation:

Option four is the correct because areas such as Sahara have a low density and are not populated. The conditions of living are not allowing people in these type of areas to create some larger permanent settlements. The similar case is for example in Australia where 3/4 is covered with desert, which is practically uninhabited. Or we can also created a parallel with Greenland which also has a low density due to climate factor.
