Multiple reasons...
It could get absorbed into the soil.
It may be absorbed by plants.
It might go through permeable rock and into a groundwater store. 
It could also evaporate. 
It could, instead of flowing into the ocean, flow into another water store such as a lake or pond. 
If it is a large amount of water, humans might dam the area to collect and store the water for long term use.

Does the international date line comprise a boundary between different days?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

The International Date Line (boundary) is from when each calendar day starts; west of the date line is 1 calendar day ahead  (24 hour difference) of areas to the east.

The International Date Line runs from the North Pole to the South Pole along the Pacific Ocean; curves around the islands of Kiribati (to make the islands the same day), extends outward between Asia and North America, and causes Cape Dezhenev, Russia to be 1 day ahead of Cape Prince of Wales, Alaska and they are only 50 miles apart.

International Date line follows a 180 degree meridian (halfway around the globe from the prime meridian) and meausres 0-degrees longitude

16. Which process(es) cause(s) thick sediment layers to accumulate along the boundaries of continental
taurus [48]

<u>Answer: </u>

The process of thick sediment layers to "accumulate" along the "boundaries of continental and oceanic plates" is called Subduction.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • During a marine transgression, sea level raises high compared to land level resulting in floods. These are triggered during climate changes, ice-age, isostatic movements.
  • Subduction occurs at the tectonic plates where one plate is moves under another forcing to sink into Earth’s mantle due to the gravitational force.
  • The plates are continental and oceanic in the zone of lithosphere. The rate of subduction is usually seven to 8 centimetres per year.
  • Marine regressions are opposite to transgressions where sea levels fall compared to land levels.
  • Glaciation is the interval of time within an ice-age. The current glacier period is of Holocene.
