Answer:

A. Geology

B. Computer aided designs

C. Dead organisms in the oceans

D. Helps in converting dead organisms into oil and gas

Explanation:

The oil and natural gas are buried under layers and this requires a good knowledge of "geology". Furthermore, equipments must be built to explore this oil and natural gas

Involvement of Technology has to do with "Computer aided models" being generated. Seismic surveys and satellites used to collect data.

Oil and gas began as dead plants and animals living in the ocean millions of years ago.

Role of sedimentation: the Organisms in the ocean died and went to the bottom of the ocean, where a layer of sediment would cover them. Over the years, alternating layers of dead organisms and sediments were formed. As the layers bottled up, the immense pressure and heat converted the dead organisms into oil and natural gas.

There was a book that you could get that would help with slave trade. The book name is “An Englishman Tastes the Sweat of an African”. Slavery for with the European were more brutal than slavery in Africa. The slaves in Africa were able to marry, own property, and even own slaves themselves. It was so much better that slavery wasn't passed down generation after generation like it was done by the Europeans. Europeans ships brought 10 to 12 millions of Africans to America.

If three seismic stations have the following P–S intervals: DUG = 57 sec, WUAZ = 73 sec, ISCO = 14 sec, what is the order from c
iragen [17]

Answer:

ISCO-DUG-WUAZ

Explanation:

Seismic waves of an earthquakes is recorded first in the station closest to the earthquake. The P wave is the faster moving wave and then the S wave. The faster the time it takes the P and S waves to register in the seismographer the closer the station to the site of the earthquake. Bearing this in mind, the wave was first registered in ISCO making it closest to the earthquake site, followed by DUG and then WAUZ.

ISCO (14sec)-DUG (57sec)-WUAZ (73sec)
