Varvara68 [4.7K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:  When the amount of sediments that are added to a coast and the amount of sediments removed from the coast are in equilibrium, then this equilibrium state is known as the sediment budget.

These sediments in the coastal areas are added by the ocean currents frequently striking at the base of a cliff, and also by the longshore current,and rivers that deposits the materials at the shore.

whereas, the materials are removed from the beach by the erosional processes, in which the longshore currents trnsports the sediments from the beach to the offshore.

How do geologists use index fossils to determine the age of rock strata?
love history [14]

The index fossils are fossils that are found in the rock strata of certain geologic period, but they are also fossils that are very common and can be found in numerous places around the globe.

Because they can be found all over the globe, and they are indicative of certain geologic period, the geologists have started to use them as a simple way of determining the age of the rock strata. While this method can not provide the geologists with an accurate year for the formation of the rocks, it is still able to determine the relative age of the rocks. By determining the relative age with such ease by using the index fossils, the geologists are able to immediately make conclusions about the rock strata, have basic information about it, and largely be aware of the processes that formed them and influenced them.

Sidana [21]

Answer: C. both give men and women voting rights

Explanation:

In Israel, women have had the right to vote since the mid 20th century and form a strong part of the electorate. Women are also able to run for office and lead parties.

In Iran, women may not have certain rights that women in the west do but they do have the right to vote and make up almost 50% of the electorate. Sadly they cannot run for office of presidency even though they can vote for it.
