Deflation is the process of erosion of dirt, rock, sand, or other sedimentary materials by the force of wind. When the wind blows through an area it creates deflation of the earths surface by moving particulate matter from one area to another.
Answer:
A). Continental volcanic arc
Explanation:
As per the question, the phrase '<u>continental volcanic arc' does not fit the pattern</u> as it is 'formed through the reduction of the oceanic plate under the continental plate.' While the other three 'continental rise,' 'continental slope,' and 'continental shelf' together contribute to make the 'continental margin.' It is the area that covers the boundary of the continental crust that contains mostly floating materials with three different portions with distinct depths at the verge of the rise, slope, and shelf levels. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A. Office Professional (OP). This district is intended for various levels of intensities for business, office, administrative, research and development, and/or professional land uses. This district is characterized by urban streetscapes with formal tree arrangements and larger block sizes.
B. Planned Commercial (PC). The PC districts provide flexibility for commercial and mixed-use development. Generally, these districts are characterized as coordinated projects that integrate compatible commercial and residential mixed-uses. PC districts balance the need for automobile parking and pedestrian connections that are organized around walkable streetscapes and other pedestrian amenities. PC districts are further refined based on property size, proximity to residential uses, and as desc
Answer: A large body of water that is partially surrounded by land.
Explanation:
Answer:
They receive less radiation from the sun, due to their orientation relative to incoming sunlight.
Explanation:
Earth has multiple different climate zones, roughly arranged by latitude. The difference in climates comes because of multiple factors, but the most important one is the Sun and the sunlight of it. Because Earth has a rounded shape, different parts of it receive different amounts of sunlight.
If we compare the tropical and polar regions as two contrasting regions, we can see huge differences. The tropical regions are warm or hot all year round, while the polar regions are very cold throughout all of the year. The tropical regions though receive sunlight at a much more direct angle, thus the sunlight is much more concentrated and heats up the region. The polar regions receive sunlight at a very low angle, so they are dispersing over a very wide area so they can not warm up the region.
