Answer:  Cold glaciers are found in the regions  with higher latitudes and experience less seasonal variation in temperature than those of  the lower altitudes.

They also move due to the internal flow rather than the basal slippage. They get freezed to the bedrock and they do not experience the same melting.

They move due to the action of gravity and the pressure exertion by the accumulation of ice.

They move at the speed of 2 cm a day.

One of the ways that food can be preserved is by heavily salting it so that bacteria cannot live upon the food. What causes the
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Dehydration

Explanation:

What causes bacteria to die in an extremely salty environment is dehydration due to the loss of osmotic balance in their cells.

Water molecules would normally move from the region of high water potential or low solute concentration to the region of low water potential or high solute concentration through a biologically permeable membrane.

<em>An extremely salty environment would be hypertonic to the cells of bacteria and the cell walls of bacteria act as biologically permeable membranes. Hence, the bacteria cells lose water due to the osmotic movement of water from their cells to the surrounding salty environment. </em>

What is “soil type” to an earthworm?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Abiotic factor.

Explanation:

Soil type is an abiotic factor for an earthworm. The soil type helps an earthworm to collect food and increase the population.

Sunlight, soil, water, and rocks are those abiotic factors that contribute to earthworms to obtain their food and to survive under the soil or upper side of the soil.

Like earthworms, many other organisms depend on the abiotic factors for their livelihood.

Feliz [49]

Answer: Option A.

Polar ice cap in Antarctica.

Explanation:

Scientist drill ice cores from inside the polar ice cap in Antarctica to study variability of climate and differentiate that variability From global climate change. Each layer of the ice tells about weather and what the Earth was like when the first snow fell.

For example, Le grande says that as snow deposits into a growing glacier, the temperature of the air imprints on water molecules.

Icy layers hold particles,aerosols, sea salts, trace elements that were in the atmosphere before and they abide for thousands of years and provide evidence of past events.
