Answer:

Both a and b

Explanation:

The plate tectonics are a process which moves the tectonic plates on the surface of the Earth. As the plates move, they cause the appearance of new continents, destruction of old ones, formation of new oceans and seas, closing in other ocean and seas, formation of mountain ranges and valleys etc. All of this influences the climate on the planet. The ocean currents are directly dependent on the positions and shapes of the continents, and they influence the climate a lot. Also, the manner in which the continents are shaped and placed causes certain climates to occur or not. For example, if there isn't any continental land mass on and in close proximity to the poles, the climate will automatically be warmer and the chances of formation of polar caps, thus Ice Ages is almost impossible.

Describe one economic factor leading to gender inequality in agriculture.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Answer: One economic factor leading to gender inequality in agriculture is the division of jobs, because there's an intrinsical credence that men are simply better equipped to handle certain jobs. Most of the time, those are the jobs that pay the best. This is inequitable because the results are lower income for women.

Choose the FALSE statement. A. Some organisms fossilize when frozen or dried out. B. Bacteria can help destroy dead plants and a
IrinaK [193]

The false statement is - C. It is common for a plant or animal to fossilize when it dies.

In for a plant or animal to fossilize, there have to certain conditions that will enable that process, or rather preservation. That is not the case usually, and considering the amount of animals and plants that existed, and even more the ones that existed in the geological past, the amount of fossils is extremely small. If it was common for the plants and animals to be fossilized, even 1 out of 1,000, than we would have been seeing and finding fossils pretty much on every spot of the planet, but that is not the case.
