Answer:

C. 2.41 years

Explanation:

    Since the earth is 150 million km from the sun this means that the distance between Jupiter and the earth ranges from 628 million km to 928 million km. To say that 778 million km is near or far is very relative as shown by the following examples: Jupiter is 5.2 times farther from the Sun than Earth.

The average distance between Jupiter and the Sun is 778 million kilometers, approximately 5.2 AU.

3. Describe how a clastic sedimentary rock might form from a granite exposed at the surface.
ra1l [238]

Answer:

By lithification

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks (from Latin sedimentum, settlement) are formed by the precipitation and accumulation of mineral matter from a solution or by the compaction of plant and / or animal remains that consolidate into hard rocks. The sediments are deposited, one layer on the other, on the surface of the lithosphere at relatively low temperatures and pressures and can be composed of pre-existing rock fragments of different sizes, resistant minerals, remains of organisms and products of chemical reactions or evaporation .

A preexisting rock exposed on the surface of the earth goes through a Sedimentary Process (erosion or weathering, transport, deposit, compaction and diagenesis) with which it becomes a sedimentary rock; This transformation is known as lithification. Because sedimentary rocks are formed near or on the surface of the earth, their study informs us about the environment in which they were deposited, the type of transport agent and, sometimes, the origin from which the sediments were derived.

Sedimentary rocks are generally classified, according to the way in which they are produced, in detritic or clastic, and chemical or non-clastic; Within the latter, there is a subcategory known as biochemistry

<u>Detritical or Clastic sedimentary rocks</u>:  

They are mechanical accumulations of particles or sediments of pre-existing rocks called "detritus" or "clasts" formed by weathering and surface erosion materials; these are transported and finally deposited, so they have a texture called clastic. These rocks are divided into a wide variety of types, which are characterized by the size of their constituent particles

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The Middle Colonies like New York and Pennsylvania had more cities because they were the most populated, and the most cosmpolitan. Industry, and trade were promoted in these colonies, as well as a diverse population because there was a higher degree of tolerance for other religious denominatios. Maryland for example, was a haven for Catholics in Colonial America.

Southern Colonies like Virginia or South Carolina were the most rural. This was because the economy of these colonies was based on agriculture, either in the form of large cash crop plantations that were worked by African American slaves, or in the form of small, subsistance farms in the backcountry (Appalachia), which were settled by poor Europeans, mainly coming from Scotland and Northern Ireland (Ulster).
