Ivanshal [37]3 years ago

A contour line is a line of 'equal height': every point on a contour is the same height above sea level.

The closer any two contour lines are the steeper the hill is: and the further apart they are the move level the ground.

If a group of contour lines suddenly move to form a V shape then the hill either has a promontory sticking out from it or a valley in it.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

  • 1. Mid-ocean ridges.
  • 2. Submarine canyons.
  • 3. Turbidity currents.
  • 4. Continental volcanic arcs.
  • 5. Volcanic island arcs.

Explanation:

  • The new oceanic crusts are created in the mid-oceanic ridges and the oceanic submarine canyons are those that are enlarged by sedimentary basins and the occurrence of the turbidity of the current leads to the formations of sediment-laden water and that rapidly moves down the continental slopes and has vertical walls.
  • <u>The continental arcs form in the areas of the continental zones and here the continental crust gets subducted. And in a similar way, the volcanic islands arcs are formed in the oceans.</u>

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • The relationship of the earth and sun and their influence on the biodiversity of the planet at a global scale is quite directly related to one another as he changes in any one system will definitely lead to changes in other systems this is quite a sensitive to the axial parallelism.
  • Climate change and global warming are one of the biggest examples to prove this type of changes taking place around the earth and atmosphere of earth as the planet warms quickly due to human activity the patterns of land and oceans fluctuates continuously.
  • This, in turn, affects the biogeographical realm on the earth and hence the ecologically sensitive zones are destroyed and harmed due to the man's impacts that further remove away the protective layer that supports and surrounds the earth from outside effects of sun rays and in turn disturbed the parallelism.
  • Rotational tilt is the same as it used to be but the global climatic pattern is becoming harsher on biodiversity of the planet as it is now losing its resource wealth.
