Geography

Advocard [28]4 years ago

Answer:

The Pennsylvanian age belongs to the lower Carboniferous period that started from 320 million years to 295 million years back. The environment of Nebraska including other places of North America during the Pennsylvanian environment was that there was the frequent changing of terrestrial to marine environment. The sea level was affected as the sea level has rised and dropped due to the melting of the glaciers in the geological past. A huge number of plants and trees have been buried under the surface during that time that led to the formation of most of the present day coals. The Pennsylvanian period provided a swampy environment that facilitates the coal formation as the sea level rised and covered these trees with the sediments.

Native species of North America are often defined as those species that were present in North America before Europeans arrived i
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

a) Yes! the American chestnut tree is a native species. The American chestnut tree was present before the Europeans arrived in North America in the 1600s. Since a native species has been defined as any species that was present in North America before the arrival of the Europeans, then it is a fact that the North American chestnut tree is a native species.

b) The chestnut blight is an invasive species that is native to east East Asia, and was accidentally introduced into North America around the early 1900s, when the Japanese chestnut was commercially cultivated in the United States.

c) Invasive species tend to proliferate at a very high rate because they lack some natural constraints in the new environment such as natural predators, competition, and as in the case of this chestnut blight; the host has no natural defense mechanism against them. These conditions allow them thrive more than they would in their natural environment, unchecked

d) Yes, I agree with this idea, albeit to some extent. The development of hybrid chestnut resistant to the chestnut blight will possibly return the forests back to how it was before the Europeans arrived in the 1600s, but the genetic conservation will be altered, since these new trees will be an hybrid of the old trees, and the forest won't truly be as it was before the 1600s

Answer:

No

Brian stresses a mineral. It breaks cleanly and evenly, leaving a smooth surface. The cleavage can be described as _____.
gladu [14]
If a mineral breaks and leaves a smooth crystal surface, this is said to have cleavage. There are different qualities of cleavage, depending on how smooth the surface of the plane is. For this example, since the mineral breaks cleanly and evenly, it can be described as perfect cleavage.
