The sentences below describe different techniques involved in relative dating. Complete the sentences using the following phrase

s. First, you can refresh your memory by revisiting the principles of relative dating:
Principle of superposition: When comparing two sedimentary rock layers, the bottom layer must be older than the layer above it. The logic is a lower layer must already exist for another layer to be deposited on it.
Principle of original horizontality: Sedimentary rocks were originally deposited as flat-lying, horizontal layers. If a layer is tilted, it must have moved.
Principle of cross-cutting relationships: Any rock or feature, cutting through another rock or feature, must be younger than the material through which it cuts.
Match the words in the left column to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right.
a. the principle of crosscutting relationships
b. the principle of superposition
c. the principle of original horizontality
1. Applying indicates that layers were repositioned from a flat-lying orientation
2. Magma intrudes into layers of sedimentary rock and displaces them. We can deduce that the intruded magma that crystallizes is younger than the surrounding sedimentary layers by applying younger
3. While visiting the Grand Canyon, you are amazed by the depth of layers of sedimentary rock before you - is evident here where progressively younger layers have formed over time and are stacked upon each other older
4. A fault cuts through layers of limestone, sandstone, and conglomerate. The surrounding layers must be than the fault.
5. A mass of granite has inclusions of surrounding sandstone. The sandstone and surrounding layers show evidence of uplift over time. The granite must be than the sand deposits

Coastal climates are usually more moderate than inland climates. This is primarily due to which of water's characteristics? high
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

High specific heat capacity  

Explanation:

For the same temperature change, a body of water (with a high specific heat capacity) can absorb a larger amount of heat than the land (with a small specific heat capacity)

Thus, the seasonal temperature of the sea varies over a relatively narrow range.

However, the temperature of the land shows wider seasonal variations.

In summer, the cooler water keeps land areas relatively cool. In winter, the water is warmer than the land, so it keeps land areas relatively warn.

Thus, coastal climates are usually more moderate than inland climates.  

For example, Winnipeg and St. John's are two Canadian cities close to the 49th parallel.

Winnipeg, in central Canada, has average temperatures of -18 °C in January and 27 °C in July, a range of 45 °C.

The corresponding temperatures for St. John's, 3000 km to the east on the Atlantic coast, are -8 °C and 21 °C, a range of 29 °C

1. If you look at the intersection of 0 degrees latitude (known as the Equator) and 0 degrees longitude (known as the Prime Meridian) on a map, you will see that the confluence falls in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, in the Gulf of Guinea off the coast of western Africa.

2. The 30th parallel north is a circle of latitude that is 30 degrees north of the Earth's equatorial plane. It stands one-third of the way between the equator and the North Pole and crosses Africa, Asia, the Pacific Ocean, North America and the Atlantic Ocean.

3. That point is in the Jourdan Rd port on the Intracoastal Waterway, about 1 / 2 mile south of Almonaster Ave, and 9.3 miles east of Exit-228 (Causeway Blvd) on I-10 in downtown Nawlins LA.
