Geography

Answer:

Sediment generally changes from sand to mud to limestone.

Explanation:

  • When walking from the shore of the beach into the oceans there is a change in the composition of the deposits of sediments as beaches are mostly made of the sediment deposits,  the shore is marked by the contact between the land and the sea.  
  • The sediments are sandy in texture and get converted to mud and then limestone at the base is due to the rose and fall of the sea levels. The sediments are deposited in layers and may consist of the marine organisms.
  • <u>This depends on the size and composition and the density, and distance of the sea body, erosion of sediments by wave action and is a gradual process that places over time.</u>

Answer the following:
Black_prince [1.1K]

1. A) carnivore; third

The trophic levels are divided by the manner in which the energy is produced and consumed among the living organisms. The first trophic level is occupied by the autotrophs, which are the organisms that are able to produce their own food. The second trophic level is occupied by the organisms that feed upon the autotrophs, thus they are the herbivores, as well as the omnivores in partial sense. In this case we will have the ants at the second level. The third trophic level is reserved for the organisms that feed upon the organisms of the second trophic level, thus they are predators. In this case, we will have the wasp in the third trophic level.

2. B) consumption; 20

If there are herbivores and plants, the plants account for 1,000 kg in biomass, and the herbivores eat 200 kg of them, then the consumption is 20% of the total biomass. This kind of a scenario is able to support the whole population of herbivores without any problem, as there is much more food than they need. It will only become a problem if the population of herbivores starts to grow exponentially, and they start to consume all of the food and even require more, the population will collapse.

3. C) N20

The processes and nitrification and denitrification are very common, both in nature, and because of the human activity. The human activity has actually increased this process significantly. The main product of the nitrification-denitrification is the N2O. It is a vital product for the nitrogen cycle, and it is one that is increasing the atmospheric temperature, thus too much of it is not of best interest for anyone.
