Answer:
transgression
Explanation:
In this case we will have deeper sea sediments (shales and limestones) being deposited on top of continentally-derived beach sediments (sand). This forms a sequence (from bottom to top) of: sand to shale to limestone. This is an indication of marine transgression
Answer:
The line between 500 and 600 has an elevation of 550.
Explanation:
The contour interval represents the vertical difference between the contour lines. This is for better orientation on the map, easier calculating of elevation, as well as for an easier understanding of the relief. In this case, we have lines that are set at 500 meters and 600 meters of elevation, but there is also a line between them.
The line between, or rather the contour line between them, can easily be found out as to what elevation it is set on. We have information that the contour interval on the map is 50 meters, so we can do this either by adding 50 on 500 or minus 50 out of 600, anyway we will get the correct result.
500 + 50 = 550
600 - 50 = 550
We get a result of 550, meaning that the contour line between 500 meters and 600 meters is set at 550 meters of elevation.
Answer:
Due to direct sunlight.
Explanation:
Rancho Cucamonga has a hot climate in August because the sunlight occurs directly on the Rancho Cucamonga area which is the main cause of hot weather. There is very little rainfall occurs in Rancho Cucamonga region about 427 mm which shows a semi arid climate. It has a desert climate which is the main cause of hot climate in the month of August.
This movement is called convection. It can be found in liquids, gasses and rheids - solids that can also experience movement ( on a big time scale), such as the earth mantle. One of the types of convection is diffusion: net movement of gasses from higher to lower concentration areas.
The smallest country in mainland Africa is The Gambia with a total land area of 10,689 km². It is enveloped by its neighboring country, Senegal.
