5 0

Answer:

B. Results when headward erosion causes one stream to intersect the course of another stream.  

Explanation:

Headward erosion of a low level stream can extend to intersect a higher level stream and draw away its water.

The diagram below shows Stream A eroding headward into Stream B and capturing its water flow.

A.is wrong. A water gap still carries water today.

C. is wrong. The captured stream dries up, while the pirate stream increases its flow.

D. is wrong. A dramatic example did occur in the Yukon in 1916, However, stream captures do not occur frequently.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Stream piracy or capture is a geological process whereby stream or river drainage system or watershed is diverted from its own bed, and flows instead down the bed of a neighboring stream. Some of the causes of stream piracy or capture include, hardware erosion, natural damming and tectonic activities on the earth's surface.

From earth, a hydrogen source releases an emission line that has a wavelength of 410nm. observations have been made for the same
lubasha [3.4K]

The explanation for the differences in wavelength observed from earth and a distant star with a shift towards the red end of the spectrum is the Redshift- Doppler effect.

<h3>What is the Doppler effect?</h3>

The Doppler effect is the difference that occur between the frequency of a wave in relation to observer from the wave source.

The wavelength changes with change in the frequency.

<h3>How does the Doppler effect explain the redshift?</h3>

As an object moves away from Earth, the waves moves to the red end of the electromagnetic spectrum and becomes elongated. This results to the increase in wavelength.

Therefore, the explanation for the differences in wavelength observed from earth and a distant star with a shift towards the red end of the spectrum is the redshift-Doppler effect.

Provide a one paragraph summary (at least 5 sentences) of Ohio's geologic history.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Summary:

Explanation:

Around 1 million years ago, the first of a few glaciers moved south into what is now Ohio. Approximately 2/3 of the state was covered to their maximum extent. Glaciers scraped a lot of Ohio's surface, including its bedrock. They also left deposits of clay, sand, gravel, and rock as they melted back. During this period, humans appeared in what we now call the "Old World." At some point around the end of the Quaternary Period, groups of people migrated to the "New World," and eventually reached what would later become Ohio.
