Nuclear energy originates from the splitting of uranium atoms!
a process called FISSION.

This generates heat to produce steam, which is used by a turbine generator to generate electricity. Because nuclear power plants do not burn fuel, they do not produce greenhouse gas emissions.

In which location would the rate of soil erosion most likely be higher than the rate of soil formation?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

C. A steep slope

Explanation:

Erosion is the removal of the top layer of the earth or the gathering of lose weathered materials from rock surfaces.

Agents of erosion are wind, water, glacier and gravity.

Along a very steep slope, erosion is highly rife and very prevalent to the extent that everything there is washed away to be deposited at the bottom of the slope or where gradient is more gentle.

On a steep slope, materials moves rapidly and gravity is very great. When these factors are coupled with the prevailing conditions in a place, little to no deposition occurs for soil formation.
