Convection currents are vertical circular movements of fluids that transfer energy due to changes in density.
1.) y=(-3/4)x+3
Explanation: To convert this to slope-intercept form or a linear equation, we have to solve for y. To do this, I first subtracted over 3x to isolate 4y. This gave me 4y=-3x+12. Finally, I divided everything by 4 in order to completely isolate y so that it is in linear equation form, giving me my answer, y= -3/4x+3
Answer: vermount and Middle East
Today he is best remembered for his contribution of Man and Nature. The work incorporates observations he made as a youth in Vermont, as well as on his travels in the Middle East. He was the first to suggest that human beings were agents of change, or "disturbing agents." The conventional idea held by geographers of the day, Arnold Guyot and Carl Ritter, was that the physical aspect of the earth was entirely the result of natural phenomena, mountains, rivers, oceans. No one had ever turned to the study of the earth as the home of humankind. Marsh was the first to describe the interdependence of environmental and social relationships.
Explanation:
He was a good diplomat. But we remember Marsh the scholar. He was a student of Scandinavian languages. As a philologist, he wrote an important book on the character of the English language. He was an art collector. As a scientist, he gathered reptiles for the Smithsonian. He was instrumental in the Army's attempt to use the camel in the American Southwest
Over the next few years, Marsh gave a series of lectures on the English language. In 1861, President Lincoln appointed him the first United States minister to the kingdom of Italy, and on April 27, at the age of 60, he set sail, with Caroline, for Europe. In Italy, he found time and capacity for his environmental concerns. He made several fruitful excursions to the Alps where he studied glaciers, moraines, and avalanches. Marsh witnessed Alpine erosion and the devastating contribution of grazing and deforestation, in disastrously accelerating natural erosive processes. In 1862, he began working on the manuscript for Man and Nature, a pioneering study in ecology and conservation.
Answer: After Colorado legalized the nonmedical use of marijuana, other states followed suit.
Explanation:
States are often referred to as <em>Laboratories of democracy </em>. This is due to the federal nature of the United States Government allowing states to be able to pass certain laws and govern their states how they see fit (with limitations of course).
As a result of this, if a state decides to enact a law unilaterally, other states as well as the Federal Government get the chance to see how that law works out for the state. If the law leads to positive change, it can then be adopted by others. So in a sense, the state that first initiated the law is a federal laboratory and the law was the experiment.
When other states followed suit after Colorado legalized the nonmedical use of marijuana, they had used Colorado to gauge the effect of such a law and being satisfied, adopted the law themselves.
