Answer:
Fossil B belongs to the same period as the trilobite.
Explanation:
The Law of Superposition states that the youngest rocks will always be found on top of older rocks. So as you dig deeper and deeper, the rocks you find will be older and older.
An illustration of the problem:
<em>----------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>
Fossil C: Two Semi-circles (<u>Top</u> Layer = <em>Youngest</em>)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fossil B: Rhombus with Diagnonal & <em>Trilobite</em> (<u>Middle</u> Layer)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fossil A: Shaded Rhomboid (<u>Bottom</u> Layer = <em>Oldest</em>)
So, Fossil A is older than both B and C, or, B and C are both younger than A.
Fossil B is Younger than Fossil A, but older than Fossil C.
Fossil C is the youngest (because its on top).
Answer:
e. Transform fault
Explanation:
The San Andreas tectonic feature is of transform fault type. This basically means that we have in question a fault that has been formed at or near a transform plate boundary. In this case, it is the transform plate boundary between the North American tectonic plate and the Juan de Fuca tectnic plate. It has to be noticed though that Juan de Fuca is actually not a single plate anymore, but instead it has cracked into three smaller parts, with the part being nearby San Andreas making a transform plate boundary with the North American plate. In this type of boundary, the plates slide past each other, but they still manage to create a lot of tension around the boundary, resulting in cracks in the crust, or rather faults. The faults are parallel with the boundary, and can vary a lot in width and depth, and one of the best examples in the world for this type of fault is San Andreas in California.
Here are some of the environmental challenges that Africa is facing at the moment:
1. desertification: larger patches of African land are turning into deserts, which is obviously a huge problem because the vegetation of the continent is changing and disappearing
2. no access to water: many African nations have problems finding water in this arid country, which is a danger to their lives
3. population explosion: there are more and more Africans born, and there are not enough resources to sustain them all
