ANSWER:

In the crust, the temperature changes faster with the depth.

EXPLANATION:

As the depth increases, the temperature also increases because deep down the earth's temperatures are the highest.

The earth's crust is the outermost shell of the planet. The earth's crust takes up 1% of the volume of the earth.

It is also the top component of the lithosphere. In the crust, the temperature changes with the depth ranging between 500 degree Celsius to almost 1000 degree Celsius.

What latitudes are most likely to see glaciers?

Irina18 [472]

90 degrees is the maximum latitude - (90 degrees N - this is at the North Pole, and 90 degrees S - for the South Pole).

So, 90 degrees N and 90 degrees S are the latitudes where is most likely to see glaciers.

** Degree - mean " ° ", So, you can write 90 degrees N as 90° N **

PLz help WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Which description lists Earth's layers from smallest to largest width (thickness)? Lithosphere, as

ozzi

Answer:

Answer:

The correct list is inner core, outer core, lower mantle, asthenosphere, lithosphere.

Explanation:

Based on Structural features and chemical composition earth surface is divided into different layers. The main layers can be described as,

1. Core

2. Mantle

3. Crust

Core:

The core is further divided into inner core and outer core. The inner core is extremely hot and solid. The outer core is in fluid form and surround the inner core.

Mantle:

The mantle layer is composed of rocks. The earth's mantle is also divided into two main layers Lower mantle and upper mantle. Asthenosphere is viscous and present just below the rigid lithosphere.

Crust:

Crust is the outermost layer of earth. It is composed of variety of elements. Lithosphere is the part of Crust.

Answer:

Earth science is a term that describes everything related to Earth. Earth science has four sections of study: lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere. Every single of these sections has its area of study.

Explanation:

People who study and compare geology of other planets with the earth are called planetary geologists.

The lithosphere is a solid part of the earth located on the extern site.

The hydrosphere is the mass of water located on the planet.

The atmosphere is a mix of gases that are surrounding the planet.

The biosphere is living part of the planet.

If Earth's atmosphere did not contain greenhouse gasses and was only composed of Nitrogen and Oxygen, by how much would Earth's

Flauer [41]

Answer: 1- Option (D)

2- Option (A)

Explanation:

The green house gases plays a significant role in the earth's global temperature. In absence of green house gas, the earth would have been very much cold and life would would be difficult to exist. The average global temperature would have been about -15°C to 25°C. So the most favorable answer given here is that the earth's temperature would have decrease by about 60°C.

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is not the most abundant green house gas. It is the second most abundant. The present composition of CO₂ in the atmosphere is about 0.04% by volume. A small increase in the CO₂ level, can lead to a global rise in the temperature. Hence, the above statement is false.
