Compression stress compresses rock.

Several mountains include enormous magnificent folds of rocks. Mountains that are accumulated primarily by gathering are described folded mountains. Compression stresses are a significant force that develops folded mountains.

Thrust faulting is also necessary for the development of folded mountains, which are often termed as fold-and-thrust belts. Folded mountains often carry various stacked pressure faults that have dismissed the folded rock layers near the northern Rocky Mountains. The Appalachian Mountains and the Alps in Europe are examples of folded mountain ranges

Answer:

Why is healthy skin important? Healthy skin is important because it is your first line of defense against bacteria and other pollutants in the environment. Healthy skin is more resilient when faced with external stresses, serves as an important sensory organ and helps to regulate our body temperature.

The outermost layer of skin, called the epidermis, produces a thin barrier layer called the stratum corneum. This layer varies throughout the body in its structure, thickness, composition and functional properties. For example, the skin on your palms and soles is thicker than on your face.

Skin changes such as wrinkling are one of the physical alterations most readily associated with aging. It may surprise you that the outer layer of the skin, the stratum corneum, changes very little as we age. The main changes occur at a deeper level. Collagen, a basic chemical building block of skin and connective tissue, decreases with age.

Eating salty potato chips increases the concentration of sodium in the ____.

Irina18 [472]

The extracellular fluid would have more salt. This would be because more of the sodium would be found in the blood than in the cells. Keeping a static level of sodium in the bloodstream is necessary for the proper cell activities, but increasing sodium intake can lead to negative effects.
