Basically in order for a glacier to grow water would have to freeze to it, adding layers to the glacier. In order for a glacier to recede, or get smaller, the temperature of the water would have to warm up gradually.

I hope this helps. :)

Which of the following is NOT true of dry lands? Areas too dry for farming cover about 20 percent of the Earth's surface Deserts
umka21 [38]

Answer:

No agriculture can take place in dry lands due to lack of water.

Explanation:

This is the statement that is not true of dry lands. It is true that dry lands are generally not suitable for large-scale agriculture. However, this does not mean that no agriculture can take place in them. People who have lived in dry lands for generations often farm in a small scale. Moreover, they grow crops that are resistant to this lack of water. Finally, some dry lands are significantly productive due to the use of artificial irrigation.

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - all of the answer choices.

Explanation:

In an ecosystem, there are various organisms that are grouped in different trophic levels and groups such as producers, consumers, scavengers or decomposers based on their function and position on the food and energy chain.

The food energy is created by producers and is passed to consumers, scavengers, and decomposers of all the organisms. Energy moves in only one direction in any ecosystem. Energy is passed from producers to one trophic level or energy level, to organisms in the next trophic level.

romanna [79]

Answer:

The correct Answer is A) Tropical Cyclones  

Explanation:

Tropical cyclones, hurricanes or typhoons form when convection causes warm, moist air above the ocean to rise. They begin as a group of storms when the water gets as hot as 80 °F (27 °C) or hotter. <em>The Coriolis effect</em> made by the Earth's rotation causes the winds to rotate.

The Coriolis effect refers to how a moving object seems to tilt toward the right in the Northern hemisphere and left in the Southern hemisphere. An example of the Coriolis effect is hurricane winds turning left in the Northern hemisphere.

Tropical cyclones can be found in the Atlantic Ocean and northeastern Pacific Ocean, and sometimes in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.
