Answer:

Fault zones cause Earthquakes causes the shaking that is associated with earthquakes

Explanation:

An Earthquake takes place whenever the underground rocks break in the fault zone suddenly. While they break they release an energy that generates seismic waves causing the shake of the Earth ground.

While the rocks get rubbed against each other it sticks and creates pressure, this pressure breaks the rocks and Earthquake take place. The rocks break in the focus zone of the Earthquake and the shaking is caused by the fault zone.

For dating what kinds of Geologic samples containing uranium is 238U most useful? Why?

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

After C14, Uranium238 is most widely used mineral in geological or archaeological dating.

Explanation:

U238 is generally used to date the rock materials, to know the age. As we know the half-life of U238, it is easy to identify the age of the materials containing uranium 238. It can be called as absolute dating method as it determines the exact age of the uranium contained material. It is a type of radiometric dating.

Three physical forces are involved in glomerular filtration: glomerular capillary blood pressure, plasma-colloid osmotic pressur

Elodia [21]

Answer: a. True

Explanation:

Glomerular filtrate is formed by the difference in force of hydrostatic and osmotic pressure. This physical force involves:

Bowman's capsule hydrostatic pressure: This includes the pressure that develops in the Bowman's capsule against the fluid to be filtrated expelled out by the glomerulus.

Glomerular hydrostatic pressure: The glomerulus is the main site of production of filtrate. It is higher than the average blood capillary hydrostatic pressure. It allows the water and solute molecules to be filtrated out of the plasma membrane.

Colloid osmotic pressure: The osmotic pressure which is generated by the large molecules is the colloid osmotic pressure. It is created by the plasma proteins. This pressure draws water from the glomerulus.
