Answer:

Just like the Earth, half of the Moon is lit by the Sun while the other half is in darkness. The phases we see result from the angle the Moon makes with the Sun as viewed from Earth. ... We only see the Moon because sunlight reflects back to us from its surface.

Describe two processes of weathering and two processes of erosion that are taking place in Sam's backyard.
nika2105 [10]

Answer and Explanation:

When viewing the image of Sam's backyard, we can see the occurrence of chemical and physical weathering. Physical weathering is caused by the impact of water on rocks, which promotes the breakdown of rock particles. The chemical weathering is also caused by the water that I contact with the rock react with its elements causing chemical reactions that modify the rock.

Regarding erosion, we can consider the erosion by gravity that is common in mountainous regions, like the one shown in the photo. This type of erosion promotes the loss of mass of the rock due to the detachment and rolling of rock particles, due to gravity. We can also notice the rain erosion, created by the impact of water on the rock that detaches the fragments and transports them to other places.

Explain how the work of the following folks contributed to the development of the Theory of Natural Selection
EleoNora [17]

Thomas Malthus was economist who proposed that human populations grow faster than the resources they depend on which becomes limiting factor for them, causing the increase of populations but also increase of famine and diseases. As a consequence, the weakest members die. Darwin linked this with the “survival of the fittest" (naturals elections favors the best suited for reproduction and survival).

Georges Cuvier was anti-evolutionist and religious man, but he did have influence on Darwin theory of evolution (natural selection). He was against linear system of classification so, his believes that there is more than one lineage for species helped Darwin shaped his theory.

Charles Lyell geologists who believed that geologic processes that were at the beginning of time were the same ones that were happening at the current time (processes work the same way through time). He explained that slow changes built up over time, so Darwin linked that with the way that life on Earth changes. (small adaptations that accumulated over long periods of time change a species).
