Answer: If water is the transport medium of sediment, the grain size sedimentary deposits most closely indicates:
(B) average velocity of the water from the time of erosion until deposition.
Explanation: Here, the average velocity of the water determines the sorting of the grain size.
If the average velocity is high like that of the beach, the grain size will be well sorted.
But if the average velocity is low like that of a stream, it would be poorly sorted.
One simple and easy way that scientists can accurately date fossils found is through the ground levels. When you take a big chunk out of the earth, you can see the changes in the texture in the "ground" Each "layer" represents a set of years. And as you get further and further into the ground, fossils become older and older.
<span>The answer is Ottawa, Canada.
Ottawa is the capital city of Canada and has a population of around 1 million people and is the fourth-largest city in Canada. The city has many of the functions and attractions that one would expect in a capital city - the country's parliament and many museums and educational establishments.</span>
Answer :
(A). Charles Lyell correctly explained how fossils form and formulated some of the basic principles of relative dating
Explanation:
Charles Lyell was a Scottish geologist who demonstrated the power of known natural causes in explaining Earth's history.
Relative dating is the science of determining the relative order of past events, without actually deciding its absolute age.
Charles Lyell's principle of inclusions and components, explains that, with sedimentary rocks, if inclusions are found in a formation, then the inclusions must be older than the formation that contains them.
Less children are being born due to increased efforts to lower the CBR (crude birth rate) and improve contraceptive methods. This results in less children being born, meaning that the older people are increasing in dependency (because there's more older people in the older generations vs the newer)
