Answer:
The Lithosphere according to the oxford dictionary is the rocky outer part of the Earth. The lithosphere is always moving, but very slowly. When an Earthquake occurs the Lithosphere becomes shaky and the Earthquake create ground rupture, landslides, avalanches, fires, forests destroyed and severe building damage.
The answer is simple Neptune because it is the only blue planet.
Answer:
1. Applying <u>the principle of original horizontality</u> -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 <u>the principle of crosscutting relationships</u>.
3. While visiting the Grand Canyon, you are amazed by the depth of layers of sedimentary rock before you, <u>the law of superposition</u>-- is evident here where progressively younger layers have formed over time and are stacked upon each other.
4. A fault cuts through layers of limestone, sandstone, and conglomerate. The surrounding layers must be <u>older</u> 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 <u>younger</u> than the sand deposits.
Answer:
C Weathering breaks different rocks down into sediment.
D Erosion carries the sediment dawn hill.
A Sediments are deposited in specific places.
E The sediments impact due to pressures.
B The sediments are cemented together forming a sedimentary rock.
Explanation:
- The rock cycle takes place from the igneous rocks that are primary rocks that are eroded and leading to the formation of sediments and watch later on get deposited downhill.
- Their compaction along with the pressure over the period of time leads to the formation and consolidation of sedimentary rocks. This there a product of weathering, transportation, deposition, and cementation.
These processes help the plants and flora to survive in the Salton sea.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Photosynthesis is the process with which the plants make their food. Cellular respiration is the process of metabolic reactions that takes place in the cells of the organisms. Photosynthesis produces the glucose which is needed in the cellular respiration.
The process of the photosynthesis and the cellular respiration is used by the plants and other biotic organisms to live and survive which are there in the Salton sea
