d principle of original lateral continuity

Explanation:

The principle of original lateral continuity is responsible for the thin undisturbed layers found in the Grand Canyon. Nicolas Steno proposed some principles that became very instrumental in understanding sedimentary rocks.

  • The principle of lateral continuity states that "sedimentary rocks were originally laid continuously and laterally in all directions."
  • This suggests that sedimentary beds are laid laterally and they spread out in space.
  • They are not laid isolated in their basins of deposition.
  • Today, we understand that sedimentary rocks can be correlated using this principle.
  • Thin undisturbed sequences in the Grand Canyon can best be correlated based on this principle even if erosion and some other geological features now separate them.

The SI units for measuring force:  Newton (N)

The SI units for measuring mass: kilograms (kg)

Explanation:

Système international (SI) or International System of Units consist of a list of unit measurement that mostly used by scientist. The scientist from a different country might use different unit that makes them have to convert the result of each other. The usage of the same unit measurement will help the scientist to read that publication easier, make it easier to share and discuss any topic. The unit used is metric since the decimal system also makes the conversion of a unit easier.

Why was the weight of the fire snake slightly less after it was lit on fire
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Why did the fire snake weigh a little bit less than the ingredients it came from? When Zoe weighs the ingredients (sugar and baking soda), it weighs 25 grams in total. When she weighs the “snake” it weighs 23 grams. This is because some carbon dioxide gas produced during the chemical reaction escapes into the air
