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.

Earth is 149.6 billion meters from the sun and takes 365 days to make one complete revolution around the sun. mars is 227.9 bill

We need to assume that the orbits are circular; this is a very good approximation and do not hesitate to adopt it. We need then to consider the basic equation of circular motion that relates centripetal acceleration, angular velocity, mass, radius and force:
$F=m*v^2*r$ . We also have the basic equation of Newton, F=ma. By checking, we see that for each planet we have that a=v^2*r where v is the angular velocity. v= $\frac{2\pi}{T}$ where T is the orbital period, hence we have that a= $\frac{4\pi^2*r}{T^2}$ . Denote with the index 1 the Earth case and with 2 the Mars case. We have then that $\frac{a_1}{a_2} = \frac{4 \pi^2*r_{1}*T_2^2}{4 \pi^2*r_{2}*T_1^ 2}$ . Substituting the known values in a calculator, we get the result: the centripetal acceleration of earth is 2.32 times greater than that of Mars.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

The correct answer is - T (True).

The term ''unification'', in a political sense, refers to the unification, or rather merging, of two or more countries into one country. This can be performed by countries that have been divided (for example West Germany and East Germany), countries that have mutual interest to function as one country (for example Yugoslavia), or countries that have the same ethic and cultural background but haven't been functioning as one country (for example Italy).
