Answer:

b. Sagittarius

Explanation:

From an earthly perspective, the center of the galaxy lies in the constellation Sagittarius. When looking towards the center of the galaxy, one notes that the density of the stores becomes noticeable greater due to the increase in the number and concentration of stars as we move towards the galactic center. In mythology, Sagittarius is associated with an archer, but many constellation books also point out the somewhat famous teapot asterism (pattern of stars).

valentinak56 [21]

Explanation:

Lava Cools on the side of a volcano

Storms erode the hardened lava

Particles of hardened water settle at the bottom of lakes

Layers of sediments bond underwater

Plate movement bakes sedimentary layers.

 

 Since the transition is from igneous to sedimentary to metamorphic rocks;

  • Lava which is magma or molten rock that reaches the surface cools and solidifies to form a volcano.
  • Weathering and erosion of the volcano then proceeds and sediments are formed
  • The sediments are further carried underwater where they harden at bottom of lakes.
  • Layers of the sediments bond and cements together underwater to form sedimentary rocks.
  • Tectonic activities further bakes the layers to form metamorphic rocks.

6. Where is the North European Plain?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The western and central European section of the plain covers all of western and northern France, Belgium, The Netherlands, southern Scandinavia, northern Germany, and nearly all of Poland; from northern France and Belgium eastward it commonly is called the North European Plain.

Explanation:

The North European Plain is a European region that covers Denmark, Poland, Germany, Belgium, Holland, and small parts of northern France and the Czech Republic. Some research accounts also include the southern United Kingdom, east Russia, Baltic States like Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Belarus as part of this expansive plain. The North European plain also has lowly elevated plains tucked between the Central European Highlands on the south and on the coastlines of the Baltic Sea and North Sea to the north. The Baltic and the North Sea are divided by the North Jutland Peninsula which is also the nation of Denmark. The Great European Plain is formed where the North European Plain connects to the East European Plain. The Northern European Plain also occupies the territory under the Baltic Sea. Due to the plain's unique surface features, its geological structures are keenly studied by researchers.

Features

As part of the Great European Plain, the North European Plain lies below 500 feet in altitude, and has a relatively flat terrain. As a result, drainage is poor and frosty deposits cover much of the region and plain. The North European Plain also has several rivers like the Rhine, Oder, Weser, Elbe and Vistula. Along the Rhine River in the Netherlands, there is a well developed transport system, and a vibrant agricultural area making the area around it be densely populated. The plain is amongst the most fertile lands that are utilized for commercial farming in the world. There are also tiny farms strewn in the countryside of the North European Plains. The temperate climate and the average amount of rainfall in the North European Plain allows for growth of seasonal crops like maize, wheat, and rye. This makes the plain in the North European wheat belt region. Due to the plain’s fertility and flat terrain, it is among the most densely populated territories in Europe. The rivers that crisscross the North European Plain also draw in a large human population due to guaranteed water supply.
