Plate tectonics is referred to a geology theory, which explains the movement of earth’s lithosphere. This theory suggests that the earth’s lithosphere is made up of many plates, and these plates move on each other causing collision of the plates or sometimes separation of the landmasses.
Sometimes, the movements of the plate occur in such a way that the surface of the earth is buried underground. Even in normal circumstance, some of the surface materials buried underground. So, by studying the type of things existed on the surface in past, one can predict the abundance of a specific substance underground.
Hence, the correct answer is option b. – Plate tectonics.
Answer: a. epicondyles
Explanation:
Distally the humerus bone is flattened. It exhibit a prominent bony projection on the medial side it is called as the medial epicondyle of the bone. The lateral epicondyle is present on the lateral side of the distal part of the humerus bone.
The grasping and powerful muscles of the forearm are attached with the medial epicondyle. It is typically robust and larger as compared to the lateral epicondyle. The lateral epicondyle is attached with the weaker muscles attached posteriorly.
Answer:
In this experiment the mass must be measured first because to determine volume water displacement is what is being measured. ... The reason for this is some solids will float on the water. Therefore the object's density is less dense than the water.
Answer:
carbon dioxide- burning of fossil fuels
fluorinated gases- industrial processes
methane- production and transport of oil and natural
gas
nitrous oxide- agricultural and industrial activities
Explanation:
Greenhouse gases are gaseous components that induces greenhouse effect. This means that due to their structural ability to trap heat energy in the atmosphere, they contribute to the global warming effect on the Earth. However, this greenhouse gases are produced in large amounts as a result of the day-to-day anthropogenic activities. The following are the greenhouse gases and how they are produced.
Carbondioxide (CO2)- Carbondioxide is the most common and important greenhouse gas. It is generated via natural processes like respiration but also produced when fossil fuels e.g coal, petroleum etc. are burned.
Fluorinated gases- This is another greenhouse gas caused by activities of man. Fluorinated gases are produced in industries during the production of certain products.
Methane- Methane is a gaseous hydrocarbon and the principal constituent of natural gas. Therefore, the production and transportation of oil and natural gases can lead to the escape of methane into the atmosphere.
Nitrous oxide- Nitrous oxide is an oxide of nitrogen. It is mainly produced via agricultural processes such as nitrification and denitrification or use of fertilizers etc. and also industrial actions.
