<u>Answer: </u>

Cold front is dominated by a "cold air mass".

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • Cold air mass moves to replace a warm air mass giving rise to a cold front. The different air masses do not mix as they have different temperatures and densities.
  • This is because the warm air has less density than cold air. Clouds are the best example as the moisture in the air condenses as the warm air rises and cools.
  • These are the masses of cool and condensed air. If we pass through a cold front, we definitely feel the cool air and dryness.

How might the middle layer contribute to your understanding of the history of the rock layers? How certain can you be?
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The middle layer has no fossils. As such, the layer is likely not the same age as the fossils above and below it. The middle layer might represent a rock intrusion that occurred at most 445.6 MYA, based on the age of the trilobite. The middle layer could also be older than Peripatus, at least 570 million years old. The age of the middle layer can’t be stated with any certainty.

Explain the Theory of Plate Tectonics. Write a claim below that explains how the continents moved over time and introduces 3 pie
melomori [17]

Answer:

theory dealing with the dynamics of Earth’s outer shell—the lithosphere—that revolutionized Earth sciences by providing a uniform context for understanding mountain-building processes, volcanoes, and earthquakes as well as the evolution of Earth’s surface and reconstructing its past continents and oceans.

The concept of plate tectonics was formulated in the 1960s. According to the theory, Earth has a rigid outer layer, known as the lithosphere, which is typically about 100 km (60 miles) thick and overlies a plastic (moldable, partially molten) layer called the asthenosphere. The lithosphere is broken up into seven very large continental- and ocean-sized plates, six or seven medium-sized regional plates, and several small ones. These plates move relative to each other, typically at rates of 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 inches) per year, and interact along their boundaries, where they converge, diverge, or slip past one another. Such interactions are thought to be responsible for most of Earth’s seismic and volcanic activity, although earthquakes and volcanoes can occur in plate interiors. Plate motions cause mountains to rise where plates push together, or converge, and continents to fracture and oceans to form where plates pull apart, or diverge. The continents are embedded in the plates and drift passively with them, which over millions of years results in significant changes in Earth’s geography.

The theory of plate tectonics is based on a broad synthesis of geologic and geophysical data. It is now almost universally accepted, and its adoption represents a true scientific revolution, analogous in its consequences to quantum mechanics in physics or the discovery of the genetic code in biology. Incorporating the much older idea of continental drift, as well as the concept of seafloor spreading, the theory of plate tectonics has provided an overarching framework in which to describe the past geography of continents and oceans, the processes controlling creation and destruction of landforms, and the evolution of Earth’s crust, atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, and climates. During the late 20th and early 21st centuries, it became apparent that plate-tectonic processes profoundly influence the composition of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, serve as a prime cause of long-term climate change, and make significant contributions to the chemical and physical environment in which life evolves.

Which type of mass movement do you think would cause the most change to the land? Why?
Igoryamba

Landslides and avalanches are the most dramatic, sudden, and dangerous examples of earth materials moved by gravity. Landslides are sudden falls of rock, whereas avalanches are sudden falls of snow.

lukranit [14]

Answer:

Correct answer is D cultural assimilation

Explanation:

D is the correct answer because it refers to a wide process of total lost of previous cultural pattern, and adoption to the new system of values.

A is wrong because it refers to multiple cultures who are cohabiting in one place.

B is wrong because it would mean that some aspects of previous culture are preserved.

The same goes with C because it refers to people who have different ethnic backgrounds in the family.

Answer:

Italy and Portugal

Explanation:

The British Empire controlled modern-day Eritrea, Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa.

These colonies constituted the entire east coast of Africa from the Gulf of Aden to the Cape of Good Hope except for two territories: Somalia, which was controlled by Italy, and Mozambique, controlled by the Portuguese.
