Answer:

Explained  below.

Explanation:

  • Plants roots break the rocks and soil from the bottom and derive up nutrient form the steam to leaves and its due to this factor the planet are considered as an agent in biological weathering like animals that bring up the soil particles and displace the soil matter and expose the rocks at greater depths.
  • Weathering is directly affected by the atmospheric conditions such as the concentration of atmospheric pollutants by the human-induced factors and the weathering created due to the erosion of base rocks and this happens in chemical weathering phases.

An equation is given for reference  

2(HCl) + CaCO3 ---> Ca+2 +2Cl- + H2O + CO2.

  • Here chemical distinction and breakdown of elements on earth surface take place.

Which of the following is a likely explanation for why there is limestone near the summit of Mount Everest, the tallest mountain
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The limestone found at the top of Mount Everest was formed in an ocean

Explanation:

The Himalayan Mountain Range, thus its highest peak Mount Everest as well, have been formed as a result of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates. The Indian plate, once it separated from Gondwanaland, started to move toward Eurasia. As it was getting closer, the plates started to push against each other. Since the boundary has been in the ocean, the ocean floor started to lift up first because of the immense pressure. As the plates continued to push against each other, the surrounding area was gradually pushed up, so what was once an ocean floor and lowlands was slowly becoming a mountain range. This resulted in limestone rocks that were formed in the ocean to be moved up for several kilometers and to become part of the highest mountain range in the world, providing us with another good proof of the continental drift theory.

In your own words, define global ethics and global values.<br> help
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

it may help u...

Explanation:

The term GLOBAL ETHIC refers to a set of common moral values and ethical standards which are shared by the different faiths and cultures on Earth.

These common moral values and ethical standards constitute a humane ethic, or, the ethic of humanity. In view of the process of globalization this ethic of humanity has been termed by the famous Roman Catholic theologian and philosopher Professor Hans Küng as the “GLOBAL ETHIC”.

Although the concept of a GLOBAL ETHIC was at first introduced by Professor Hans Küng in 1989 it is, in his own words, “not a new invention but only a new discovery” of common principles which are as old as humankind.

There can be no doubt that a globalizing world with its tremendous social, ecological and moral problems needs a globalization of moral values and ethical standards, in short: a GLOBAL ETHIC, in order to survive as a place where our grandchildren and great-grandchildren can live a decent life.
