Which best describes the process of carbon-14 dating? Carbon-14 decays at a constant rate, and scientists measure the amount of

carbon in a fossil to determine its age. Scientists use a biological compound found in all living things to track Carbon-14 over time. Scientists compare the Carbon-14 levels in present humans with human fossils. Scientists find Carbon-14 in the rugged desert of Ethopia and implant it into fossils, which then show a constant rate of decay.

Answer:

c. The Syrian Desert did not have enough good farmland.

Explanation:

The Akkadian Empire was a great kingdom of Mesopotamia formed from the conquests of Sargon I of Akkad. It maintained its maximum splendor in the XXII century BCE (2334 to 2192 BC) in which five monarchs succeeded each other: Sargon himself, his sons Rimush and Manishutusu, his grandson Naram-Sin and his son, Sharkalisharri who ruled for 141 years.

The dominions of the Akkadian Empire extended to the entire basin of the Tigris and Euphrates, Elam, Syria and - according to the inscriptions - even further, to Lebanon and the Mediterranean coast. According to these inscriptions, incursions into Anatolia and the interior of the Zagros Mountains would be made and the empire would control the trade of the Persian Gulf towards «Magan» (possibly Oman) and the Indus Valley region.

The empire reached its maximum territorial extension: in the western limits it incorporated the regions of Aleppo (in present-day Syria), and the surroundings of Tripoli (in the Canaanite Mediterranean coast of present-day Lebanon); in the Orientals it conquered Susa and, in the north, it expanded by Anatolia. It is a combination of steppe and desert that is located in the north of the Arabian peninsula and covers more than 500,000 km2 in eastern Syria and Jordan, and in western Iraq. The desert is very rocky and flat. Due to its scarcity of resources and its extreme climate, it is a region little inhabited by life. For this reason, the Syrian desert did not have enough good farmland which limited the expansion of the empire of Sargon of Akkad.

Explain how the rate of soil formation can be accelerated.
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

The rate of soil formation can be accelerated by an increase in the weathering of rocks that contribute to the mineral makeup of soil. Topsoil can be increased through the increase of available organic material. Erosion can also lead to an increase in available parent material for soil formation.
