The correct answer is - biomass from the decomposing grasses.

The Midwest is a region known for its highly fertile soil. The reason for this is that the weathered bedrock combines with huge amounts of biomass. The biomass is almost entirely form the grasses. The grasses grow naturally in this region and they dominate the landscape. They grow and die out relatively quickly, as most of those grasses are one season grasses. They manage to create very large amounts of biomass every year, and also they decompose very quickly. The grasses also are high in nutrients, so once decomposed, they give the soil a lot of nutrients as well, which makes it very fertile and suitable for agriculture.

slega [8]

Answer:

This all has to do with the location of the two areas.

Explanation:

Siberia is farther away from the equator, therefore, the sun does not make direct contact with it. The equator is the middle of the earth, and because it gets more exposure to sunlight, and the sun is always directly above them in the sky, the climate is very different from areas in places like Russia, Canada, and Iceland.

1. What types of geological events or changes occur at divergent plate boundaries?

lorasvet [3.4K]

Thanks for the question,

The molten rock from the cloth exploded next to the hole, forming a new crust. Earthquakes occur in these areas, called distribution centers, are minimal. The Great Rift Valley in Africa, the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden were all formed as a result of the movement of various plates.
The changing plate border is the area where two tectonic plates move to each other, often causing one plate to slide under the other. A collision of tectonic plates could lead to earthquakes, mountains, mountain construction, and other geological events.
When two tectonic plates slide past each other, the area where they meet is a rotating or lateral error. The San Andreas Fault is one of the best examples of lateral plate movement.
The air, water, and ice erode and shape the earth. Volcanic activity and earthquakes are changing the landscape in a dramatic and often violent way. And with more time, the movement of the plates of the earth also exposes the oceans and continents. (Check the image for evidence)
