Answer: 2

The line separating Australian animal species from non Australian species.

Explanation:

The Wallace Line was a federal line drawn in 1859 by naturalist Alfred Russell Wallace. Its transitional zone is also referred to as WALLACEA.

Plants and animals related to Asian species are found to the North-west. Australasian species are found mainly to the South-east, with some Asian species.

Answer:

2. the line separating Australian animal species from non-Australian species

Explanation:

The Wallace line is an animal boundary line drawn by Alfred Wallace that separates Australian fauna species from non-Australian fauna species. It's a transitional zone between Austrialia and the Asia continent. The animals found in south East Asia is so much different from those found in Australia, hence the line drawn. The line is just one of the many biogeographical borders in the world separating geographical regions with not so similar group of plants and animals.

The time required for the moon to orbit around the earth is slightly longer than the earth rotation on its axis. The moon rotates in the same direction that the earth rotates on its axis. Thus, the moon's full rotation requires another 50min or 25 minutes per crossing of the earth's meridian.

List an example on Earth of the feature faulting creates.
NikAS [45]
Normal fault - a dip-slip fault in which the block above the fault has moved downward relative to the block below. This type of faulting occurs in response to extension and is often observed in the Western United States Basin and Range Province and along oceanic ridge systems.

thrust fault - a dip-slip fault in which the upper block, above the fault plane, moves up and over the lower block. This type of faulting is common in areas of compression, such as regions where one plate is being subducted under another as in Japan. When the dip angle is shallow, a reverse fault is often described as a thrust fault.

strike-slip fault - a fault on which the two blocks slide past one another. The San Andreas Fault is an example of a right lateral fault.

Strike-slip Fault Animation

A left-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the left when viewed from either side.

A right-lateral strike-slip fault is one on which the displacement of the far block is to the right when viewed from either side.
