Answer:

Arctic is degrading fast while antarctica is degrading slowly both by air and water.

Explanation:

  • Its true that most of the arctic and the Antarctic ice sheets have melted and the earth surges steadily towards the dangerous wrath of the planet, various reports have given proof that the arctic ice or that of the north pole melting fast at an alarming rate as the altitudinal conditions and the impacts of the climate changes are more profound in this region.  
  • With the rise of temperature of more than 1.8° F, in the past decades, the temperature of this region the current rate of the greenhouse emission has destroyed about 90% of the ice that is left. And is projected to a 3.7° F rise as the threshold of the impact of man activities.
  • <u>Antarctica, on the other hand, is not fast as arctic but thew studies have shown that is somewhat similar to average global warming. The antarctic absorbing up the heat from the southern ocean water bodies. Also in the past years, the invasion of species and the uneven cooling has led to 2 °C warming of the continent.</u>

Answer: EVAPORATION.

Explanation: Salinity can be defined as the saltiness or the concentration of salt dissolved in a body of water. Measured in grams of salt divided by the kg of water.

Evaporation increases the salinity of water. Basically, evaporation is the process of converting liquid into gaseous state. In essence, concentration of a solution can be increased by evaporation and since the salinity of water is measured in grams of salt divided by the kg of water, therefore, the lesser the amount of water per salt, the higher the salinity.

The San Francisco earthquake of 1906 occurred along what fault? A. the San Francisco fault B. the California fault C. the San An
Lina20 [59]

The correct answer is - C. the San Andreas fault.

San Francisco, as most of the western of California, is lying in close proximity to the San Andreas fault. This fault is a continental transform fault that is formed as a result of the transform boundary between the Pacific plate and the North American plate, with a small plate lying in between them. Because of the horizontal movement of the plates and the pressure they cause to one another, there's constant adjustments inside the crust, and that contributes to lot of earthquakes in the region. One of those earthquakes was the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, a very strong and devastating earthquake, often considered as the worst earthquake in the history of the United States.
