Answer:

Glaciers not only transport material as they move, but they also sculpt and carve away the land beneath them. A glacier's weight, combined with its gradual movement, can drastically reshape the landscape over hundreds or even thousands of years. The ice erodes the land surface and carries the broken rocks and soil debris far from their original places, resulting in some interesting glacial landforms.

Which of the following is the point underground where rock layers first move during an earthquake? Epicenter Focus Fault Crosspo
OverLord2011 [107]

The correct answer is - Focus.

Focus of the earthquake, also referred to as hypocenter, is the location/point where the earthquake starts. It is usually few kilometres below the surface. At this spot the ground raptures after which seismic waves start radiating outward in all directions. The focus is located below the epicenter, or rather the epicenter is above it because the location of the epicenter is determined by the location of the focus, so the epicenter represents the closest point on the surface of the Earth from where the focus is.

We can then use the continential plate to help us determine, which is the North America plate.

Therefore this is the North Atlantic Ocean.

Hope it helps!

Why is primary succession so much slower than secondary succession? (page 14
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

because it begins where there is no soil. It can take several hundred to several thousand years to produce fertile soil naturally. The first pioneer species to colonize the bare rock will probably be bacteria and lichens, which can live without the soil.
