Answer:

The correct answer is Strip mining

Explanation:

In Geography Physical process refers to processes that happen naturally without the intervention of anthropic force whether it is direct or indirect. Some of the most known physical processes are natural hazards such as floods, Hurricanes, Volcanic eruptions, Earthquakes, etc. But there are a lot of physical processes happening on the Earth, like the Physical Weathering of rocks due to the action of Water, Winds or even Ice that breaks down the rocks naturally.

Strip mining is not a natural process, it is the process where humans mine the surface of the earth, the so-called "Open-pit" mining is one type of Strip mining. Humans are directly responsible y of these types of process on Earth better known as Anthropic Process.

Which statement supports the giant impact theory for the formation of the Moon? A. Earth and the Moon share many compositional c

OLEGan [10]

Answer: A. Earth and the Moon share many compositional characteristics

Explanation:

According to the giant impact theory, the Moon formed when an object of the size of Mars and geologically similar to Earth (which was called Theia by scientifics) crashed into the primitive Earth. With this collision, vaporized pieces of the crust of the young Earth were thrown into space. After this, the expelled particles were united by the action of gravity, creating the Moon.

This theory could explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth, but lighter, making it less dense than Earth, since the material that formed it came from the crust, leaving the rocky core of the planet intact. This was verified by the samples of rocks brought from the Apollo missions, which indicate that it is composed mostly of the same components of the Earth.
