Answer

Relatively steep

Explanation:

The continental margin , between the continental shelf and the abyssal plain, comprises a steep continental slope, surrounded by the flatter continental rise , in which sediment from the continent above cascades down the slope and accumulates as a pile of sediment at the base of the slope. Extending as far as 500 km (310 mi) from the slope, it consists of thick sediments deposited by turbidity currents from the shelf and slope.

Which type of power generation has resulted in raising the levels of greenhouse gases?
goldenfox [79]
Fossil Fuels. However, producing solar, water and wind power plants and generators cost a lot of energy, generated by fossil fuels. The problem is that 'green' energy sources don't repay the amount of energy used to make them. Fossil fuels are bad guys, but don't think placing solar panels everywhere will stop the greenhouse effect. Not until their efficiency is high enough to produce more energy than is put into them.

The latitude is 44.8° N. Now express this position by converting the .8 subunit into minutes.
Natali [406]

Based on the latitude and the conversion metric, 0.8° in minutes would be <u>48 minutes. </u>

<h3>What is the subunit in minutes?</h3>

Each degree of latitude is considered to be an hour or 60 minutes.

0.8° of latitude will therefore be:

= Degree of latitude x 60 minutes per latitudinal degree

= 0.8 x 60

= 48 minutes

In conclusion, this is 48 minutes.

What do you know about the Reform movements of the differences between the North and South before the Civil War?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The North was extremelyindustrialized while the South relied heavily on slavery and agriculture. The North often bought food from the South due to the poor conditions of soil in the North. This was how the South contributed to the economy and continued using slaves up until the events of the Civil War.

Due to the North having no need for slave labor and instead freeing the slaves, Northerners tended to protest against the use of slavery and found distaste in it. Meanwhile, in the South, Southerners relied very much on slave labor and, as a result, saw it as okay and wanted slavery to stay. The government was trying very hard to compromise, but slavery clearly isn't an issue that you can compromise on.
