Answer:

The law of original horizontality explains that the deposition of sediment layer is horizontal under the gravity action.

Explanation:

The law of original horizontality was given by  Nicholas Steno. This law states that the sediment layer is deposited horizontally under the influence of the action of gravity.

The law of original horizontality is important to understand the movement of tectonic plates of the earth. The folded and tilted strata has been caused by some movement and collision of earth's plate.

Thus, horizontal deposition of sediment layer has been explained by the "law of original horizontality".

Which method do you think best represents energy flow through ecosystems? Why?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The circle of life, in which energy flows into the world from the sun, giving plants that energy to live.  All of the organisms in an ecosystem are chemical machines driven by the energy captured in photosynthesis. The organisms that first capture energy, the producers, include plants, some kinds of bacteria, and algae. All other organisms in an ecosystem are consumers.

The plants energy will then be transferred to a small animal, most likely a rabbit or maybe a mouse; depending on the plant. The small animal will then be eaten by a bigger more dominating animal like an eagle or a snake. It just goes on and on. The eagle or the snake will get eaten by a bigger animal or will decompose into the earth giving the soil and plants around it that same energy.
