Is it possible for marine scientists to get an exact count of a population? Why or why not?

No, that is completely impossible. The reasoning behind it is because if its a large group of fish they're swimming back and forth ect, ect, it would be like counting a bowl of rice, but not being able to take any out. To get around these counting problems, scientists take data from just a small portion of the population called a sample. They take several samples and then use the average size of those samples to calculate an estimate of the entire population size.

Yes because if you have the right circulations and you figure out how many surtain species  their are of each merin animal then you take the total average of each species and add it up then you have your population

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

The temperature and pressure on the earth's surface is lower than that below the earth's surface. Generally, temperature and pressure increases as you move/dig down the earth's surface. This increase in temperature and pressure causes the earth's sediment (below the earth surface) to form a compact solid rock - this process is known as lithification.

In which location would the rate of soil erosion most likely be higher than the rate of soil formation?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

C. A steep slope

Explanation:

Erosion is the removal of the top layer of the earth or the gathering of lose weathered materials from rock surfaces.

Agents of erosion are wind, water, glacier and gravity.

Along a very steep slope, erosion is highly rife and very prevalent to the extent that everything there is washed away to be deposited at the bottom of the slope or where gradient is more gentle.

On a steep slope, materials moves rapidly and gravity is very great. When these factors are coupled with the prevailing conditions in a place, little to no deposition occurs for soil formation.
