Answer: e. microscopic spherules and macroscopic meteor debris.

Explanation: Cosmogenous sediment is obtained from extraterrestrial sources, and it exists in two primary forms which are microscopic spherules and larger meteor debris. Microscopic spherules consists mostly of silica or iron and nickel, and are thought to be ejected. Macroscopic meteor debris is obtained from collisions of meteorites with Earth. These collisions release particles into the atmosphere these eventually settle back down to Earth and contribute to the sediments.

What is the units used to measure distances between parallels and between meridians

Vaselesa [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

The units used to measure distances between parallels and between meridians are degrees, minutes, and seconds.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The distance between two far-away latitudes or two far-away longitudes can be broadly measured in degrees.

In order to pinpoint any two locations lying across two different latitudes or longitudes, the distance can be tracked down to minutes and seconds.

The distance between two closest latitudes or two closest longitudes can only be measured in minutes and seconds because they would be placed only 59 minutes and 59 seconds apart.
